lyrics

I knew how this might end
I had to break the trend
so I gave it all
Underdog to anyone else
I fired a load of my shells
It was a desperate call

Underneath my feet the ground shakes
Everything's in a faster pace
There's no time to waste
This is the final lap
This is tha final lap

It was another mistake that I let myself fall behind
[let myself fall behind]
Now I've learned I should win every war I get into
[win every war]
I've been this way for far too long
but it's only now that it felt so wrong
It's not easy
and never it'll be

I'm always messin' up
but used to catchin' up
but now I broke apart and
cannot keep up
I'm always catchin' up
but no, not this time
It's not easy
It's not easy

This might be it,
something that time cannot repeat
and despite the pain in my feet
Today isn't time for defeat
and I won't accept defeat

Now that I'm bound to lose
it's almost over
will things ever change?
how could this be?
how could this be?

I'm always messin' up
but used to catchin' up
but now I broke apart and
cannot keep up
I'm always catchin' up
but no, not this time
It's not easy
It's not easy

I'm always messin' up
but used to catchin' up
but now I broke apart and
cannot keep up
I'm always catchin' up
but no, not this time
It's not easy
It's not easy
