sometimes i get so tired - sometimes it gets too hardi don't know what keeps me going and i whistle in the darksometimes it feels like there's work to be doneand i can barely maintainand there's not enough time and i'm so far behindand nothing will ever changeCHORUSi'm not backing away, not backing out, not backing downa fire will burn, it's coming my wayi've got an ear to the groundbut i'm not backing downthere are days that pass like hoursthere are hours that pass like daysthere are lifetimes to be left behind and i can't seem to walk awaythere are days when i'm just killing time and days when it kills meand i can't see the end of the endless daysand i don't have the energyCHORUSbut inside my heart is a dream - it's a dream that won't let me falltho sometimes a dream is just a dreamand what's real is the clock on the wallwell maybe i'm a fool with a joker up my sleevebut i have my dream - i believe what i knowand i know what i believeCHORUS
