Mr. Scientist - Nothing to Show Lyrics

As I recall, it was '98
I put it off, I started late
But I felt like through my fingertips
And so I played until they split
Cyanoacrylate

I'll never be who you thought I was
I let it go, didn't want a fuss
But I recall when you said you liked me
I thought, "Man, you don't know me"
I let it go, it's just how I was

And pretty soon I'll hit the big 4-0
And I guess that I will still have nothing to show
But at least I tried, at least I tried
And in another 20 years or so
I'll be proud that I never stopped pushing
Not until I die, not until I die

Another day of feeling numb
Another way of feeling dumb
But I face my fears
Year after year
And I won't stop until they're gone
