Bottle This

So tired of trying to keep up with someone else's pace
 you got a new tattoo, but the same old face
 complacency is the enemy and I've been acting old
 there's got to be more to life than doing what we're told
 you can't bottle this - it always slips away
 shut out - of a dream we had not long ago
 there's nothing to prove, nothing to show
 we've been told all this before
 so why am I still keeping score
 constraints are all around you every single day
 when you're feeling overloaded you can't run away
 and everywhere you go there's another wall in life
 no matter where you look there's no end in sight
 you can't bottle this - it always slips away
 shut out - of a dream we had not long ago
 nothing to prove, nothing to show
 we've been told all this before
 and I'm still keeping score
 I understand you've got pressure's
 but I can't accept your reaction
 it's been a long road
 is it all a distraction?
 birth, school, work, death
 these are things we all have to accept
 and sometimes it feels like you're hitting a wall
 I can't make sense of it all
 shut up!
 it's another time and another place
 get a different view and a brand new take
 it's a brand new day, it's a brand new day
 brand new day
 it's a brand new day
 brand new day
