There's a game life plays   Makes you think you’re everything they ever said you were   I’d like to take some time   Clear away everything I've planned      Was it life I betrayed?   For the shape that I'm in   It's not hard to fail   It’s not easy to win   Did I drink too much?   Could I disappear?   And there's nothing that's left but wasted years   There's nothing left but wasted years   There's nothing left but wasted years      If I could change my life   Be a simple kind of man   Try to do the best I can   If I could take the signs   I'd derail every path I could   An I'm about to die   Won’t you clear away from me?   Give me strength to fly away?      Was it life I betrayed?   For the shape that I'm in   It's not hard to fail   It’s not easy to win   Did I drink too much?   Could I disappear?   And there's nothing that's left but wasted tears   There's nothing left but wasted years   There's nothing left but wasted years   There's nothing left but wasted years      Was it life I betrayed?   For the shape that I'm in   It's not hard to fail   It’s not easy to win   Did I drink too much?   Could I disappear?   And there's nothing that's left but wasted tears      Was it life I betrayed?   There's nothing left but wasted years   For the shape that I'm in   There's nothing left but wasted years   Did I drink too much?   There's nothing left but wasted years   All those wasted years   There's nothing left but wasted years      Was it life I betrayed?   For the shape that I'm in   It's not hard to fail   It’s not easy to win
