Ambition

Things keep going sideways
 And I can't hold on
 I wish the wind would blow my way
 When it does it brings storms
 And I don't care
 About some useless information
 You can give to take me there
 Well you know it died
 And we lived another life
 But the things they tried
 Could not be left behind
 The marks you leave
 The person that's inside
 Are you yourself
 In someone else's eyes?
 I can't quite shake the feeling
 That I'm lost in a crowd
 At twenty-three I hit that ceiling
 And I can't get out
 And don't pretend
 That you never knew there was a time
 You were my only friend
 Well you know it died
 And we lived another life
 But the things they tried
 Could not be left behind
 The marks you leave
 The person that's inside
 Are you yourself
 In someone else's eyes?
