Paroles de Dead end

V1:
How quick am i going i'm about to go faster
Pushed down the hill and they pumped the gas
They forced it down my throat / where i'm bound to go
Who i am and what i know
The person in the mirror tell me where they've been
A big black "perfect" across their forehead
Tired, vacant eyes and everybody smiles / trophies in the background
That's all i am / that's where i stand

Chorus:
So fix me again and tell me i'm not / all that you bargained for but you've got
I'm too many things to comprehend
Strings at the fray try to tie down the mess / but i'll break if you say this ain't my best
I'm trying, i'm screaming but i can't
And if we don't brake now then we're gonna hit the dead end

V2:
Chin up, shoulders back, keep your eye on the prize
Make sure i'm not flawed in the public eye
'cause god forbid i trip / and my cover slips
And they realize i'm just a kid
With dreams, and hopes, but a closed door 'cause everybody knows
You've got to be perfect, best in the state
But they don't know they're just running in place

(chorus)

Bridge:
What if we slowed down / and realized that everything i'm doing's just too hard
What if we noticed / that i wanna do other things, and i don't gotta be the best for me 'cause
I'm just a kid / running in place towards a dead end, towards a dead end

(chorus)
