Right now's the problem    'Cause I'm shooting blanks again   Something comes to twist me   And I'm getting weak again      Still disappointed   I'm choking on the past   This is just a wash-out   I'm waiting to (be last?)   Can I just pretend?   Can I just pretend?    I'll hack the sides away   I went ahead and hacked the sides away   Without respect to age      Coughing it up over man (4x)      My time is shining    And I'm clocking up again   Attempts to be impressive   Left me clocking up again   Can I just pretend?   Can I just pretend?   I chop the sides away   I went ahead and chopped the sides away   This is how you (fade?)      Coughing it up to the man (2x)   Coughing it up for the man (3x)      Look at (?)   I feel like dancing   This time is changing
