I judge the whole world not with hits but what I miss

and I'll ask myself if this feels like it's a bait and switch

so who am I to ask the whens and wheres and ifs

if I can't ask myself if that's how I wanna live

It's impossible

to know what lies ahead

and it's improbable

so say good luck, my friend

what's faith and what's just fate

are treading way too close

and it's a slippery slope

I'll judge the world by what we did not what we wish

between what's called the facts

and what becomes our fiction

I'll be the one who follows blindly up a hill

I can look at this glass

half empty or it's half filled

My reality

becomes a check mark for

every week that I live

and stay out on this course

while we continue on

with all this back and forth

who's awake keeping score

I've thrown most of my life away

Call me a demographic, lost the truth or never had it

I've thrown most of my life away

I'm not asking questions, I'm not learning lessons

I'm a young statistic, lived my life blinked and missed it

I've thrown most of my life away

Carelessly and clearly bent on living to forget

[Talking:]

The path you have chosen for the present is full of hazards

many months of sacrifice, and self discipline lie ahead

many threats and enunciations keep us away of our danger

but the greatest danger of all, would be to do nothing

I've thrown most of my life away

call me a demographic, lost the truth or never had it

I've thrown most of my life away

I'm not asking questions, I'm not learning lessons

I've thrown most of my life away

I'm a young statistic, lived my life blinked and missed it

I've thrown most of my life away

carelessly and clearly bent on living to forget

(life away) I've thrown most of my life away
