It's been 500,000 times
I've tried to write along to my own words
The speed of light just isn't fast enough tonight
I'm rising to the occasion, I'm falling through the cracks
The words they come in one ear but they don't come out in tact
You think I'm going someplace else
You think my mind's gone off to space
But still I try to keep my feet planted on the ground
Fall into the same old hole, the same damn place
I know you won't believe it
I know you think it isn't real
Oh, I feel a bit distracted
The panic breathing welcomes me
500,000 f*cking times
It's been 500,000 times
I've tried to write along to my own words
The speed of light just isn't fast enough tonight
I'm rising to the occasion, I'm falling through the cracks
The words they come in one ear but they don't come out in tact
The words they don't come out in tact
500,000 f*cking times
