Rushing through the days To get to the nights Is this really how you want to live your life? Doing 99 in a 35 Passing by all the sights and signs Keep on running reds Yeah, you'll never learn Overshoot the scenic route and miss your turn And you're following a train of thought Burning up the world at hand Denying that you're feeling lost Thinking no one understands Arguing 'til you turn blue Blind to what's in front of you Answers far between and few Limiting what you can do Skimming every page won't help ease your mind You don't dialogue, just wait to say your line Think the world's a stage, yeah you may be right But when the show goes on who will you be tonight? Can you make some room for a breath or two? Need to clear the air before somebody chokes on you Well you've gotta slow down Because you're moving too fast How're you gonna find the time to make any of this last? And you're following a train of thought Burning up the world at hand Denying that you're feeling lost Thinking no one understands Arguing til you turn blue Blind to what's in front of you Answers far between and few And pretty soon the path you choose starts choosing you
