Mediocrity Lyrics

There's a child inside but he'll never survive

The torment, the pain, the choking from pride

Simple ambitions and desires wind down

He's living each day with feelings he'll drown

Balancing life and the pressures to win

The stress and anxiety, his mind left to spin

Confronts mediocrity appearing so cool

Quite an achievement and all have been fooled

Life's long road has created a scene

A portrait of a man who's muting his screams

Will he be found out, worried of fallout

Keeping his chin stout but fading to burnout

Wanting to achieve and has been led to believe

Aspirations are bold but he's growing old

Growing too old, feeling too cold, soul has been sold, all's been foretold

But time looks back not and nor should you

Hold onto dreams that you know to be true

Futures uncertain foil feelings of dread

Is it all in your head? Yes it's all in your head

Yes it's all in your head

Futures all close so near and so dear

With all that you have, it warrants no fear

It's never too late to begin to amend

The kink in the road is only a bend

Life's long road has created a scene

A portrait of a man who's muting his screams

Will he be found out, worried of fallout

Keeping his chin stout but fading to burnout

Wanting to achieve and has been led to believe

Aspirations are bold but he's growing old

Growing too old, feeling too cold, soul has been sold, all's been foretold

Time looks back not and nor should you

Hold onto dreams that you know to be true

Futures uncertain foil feelings of dread

Is it all in your head? Yes it's all in your head

Futures uncertain and there is need to rest

Live for today, it truly is best

Fine to be ordinary sometimes been said

It's far better off than wishing you're dead
