Outside, they're taking all bets
I'm backing around, I'm losing again
But I, I will find a life in it
It's there in the crowd, but I can name it
Takes time, it's rough
I'm never enough
I grow my dreams too bold
I'm tumbling down
All ways I keep on falling
In too deep, far and away, oh
Oh, down, down, down
I hear it calling
Always seems to get away, anyway
Can't measure up to it yet
I set it up higher than I can reach it
So I, I run round as what I create
Entangle myself in the mess that I make
Takes time, it's rough
I'm never enough
I grow my dreams too bold
I'm tumbling down
All ways I keep on falling
In too deep, far and away, oh
Oh, down, down, down
I hear it calling
Always seems to get away, anyway
I know I'm reading my own end
I know I knew what I said
It wasn't me and all I did
It was just words instead
Then when I follow where it lead (now I see it, I know)
To yet another dead end (now when I see it, I know)
Don't know I see it right ahead (now I see it, I know)
Its little light where I step
Down, all ways I keep on falling
In too deep, far and away, oh
Oh, down, down, down
I hear it calling
Always seems to get away, anyway
Down, all ways I keep on falling
In too deep, far and away, oh
Oh, down, down, down
I hear it calling
Always seems to get away, anyway
