Enough
It's a weird feeling just laying there staring at the cealing
trying to figure out whats wrong and whats right
if your lifes passed you by and your just fading into the night
crying enough tears to fill a stream knowing you've given up on your dreams
trying to figure out where you stand because nothing has gone as planned
everythings gone wrong like a shitty cowboy song
all i had was bad luck good thing I didn't have a horse, a dog or a truck
I didn't have the simplest things good living brings
Getting by on lie's and goodbye's because I never measured up to size
So affraid of responsibility made it an impossiblity to have any stability
looking for ways to live in an alternate reality was my speciality
like a free falling sky diver it was time to pull the chute
put away the snoot and look for new persuits
find something new, something good I can do
For once actully follow through
Make preperation get an education build a proper foundation
maybe it can lead to joy and elation
I can get passed the bad weather, get my act together
Quit running from the respondsibilty stuff
Quit running when it gets rough
I know life can get tough
its time to grow up because I've had enough
