Laik - System Check Lyrics

I used to dream about the future
But this is not what I imagined
I used to carry on and wonder but
This is not how I intended things to turn out
We used to walk around like fears were something that we never had
But we got it wrong
We used to walk around like everything was at our fingertips
But we got it wrong
So long
To the stories of our futures moving on

I'll run a system check when my legs give in, though
I'm running out of time but I feel alive
I'm sorry I cannot help you out
You know I want to
I'll run system check when the battle ends
I'm running out of steam but I feel alright
I'm sorry I cannot carry on

We destroy ourselves with vices
'Cause life is not always on our side
We tend to make all the wrong choices
'Cause the right ones all seem boring and we know we've tried them out

Now I sit inside this place I built with no one but myself
"Cause I got it wrong
And I stay for days while keeping still
I know it's been too long but I stay inside
My mind
While I watch the world go by me one more time

I'll run a system check when my legs give in, though
I'm running out of time but I feel alive
I'm sorry I cannot help you out
You know I want to
I'll run system check when the battle ends
I'm running out of steam but I feel alright
I'm sorry I cannot carry on

I'll run a system check when my legs give in, though
I'm running out of time but I feel alive
I'm sorry I cannot help you out
You know I want to
