Understand, you’ll never be what they expect
It’s out of reach

You’re not the kind to reach that line (?)
It’s nothing like you had in mind

Another right along the show you play, realize
It will not make the problems go away
You cannot act your way out of the daily demise
Get real today the hell will just go away (?)

Understand, the road ahead
It’s full of gaps
Gets harder yet

You’re not the kind to leave this line
It’s nothing like you and I mind

[2× chorus]
