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
