Trusting Myself

Another day is reaching its end
And my success has been nothing but pretend
And as the days go rushing away
I'm watching as my dreams all begin to bend
Along this endless, steep mountain trail
I feel that I've been climbing to no avail
And I'll just keep on moving ahead
And keep on blindly hoping I'll never fail

I'm trying, but I don't know if I'll succeed
At this point, it's getting hard to tell ambition from greed
I'm going, but where I'll get, it's hard to tell
I've been doubting whether I should keep on trusting myself

Time - it's always drifting away
You know you're going to lose at least a minute a day
Don't even try to deny ever being delayed
'Cause some would surely say that that's too much attention to pay
Say goodbye to the lies and the alibis
'Cause only you know whether what you're doing is right
It's no use crying 'cause your time is so tight
You've got to figure out why you're always going astray
And why you're always afraid that it's all going to fade
Ironically, you waste your time on grinding thoughts
And wishing that that moment had stayed
But it drifted away
And you think that you'll evade it all by calling it "fate"
I'd try to fly real high, in spite of
The fact that I just realized that I'm losing sight of my life
I'd say I'm doing okay
But when it gets down to it, this is all I can say

I'm trying, but I don't know if I'll succeed
At this point, it's getting hard to tell ambition from greed
I'm going, but where I'll get, it's hard to tell
I've been doubting whether I should keep on trusting myself

Time is an opponent you can't beat
How can I move with all this pressure on me?

I'm trying, but I don't know if I'll succeed
At this point, it's getting hard to tell ambition from greed
I'm going, but where I'll get, it's hard to tell
I've been doubting whether I should keep on trusting myself
