Race Against Myself lyrics

[Verse 1]
All I want, all I need always lies just out of reach
I've been coming up empty
I've run as fast as I can run, I've pushed as hard as anyone
Still, there's nothin' for me, oh

[Chorus 1]
(And I want) I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need) I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall) But I am running a race
Against myself, against myself, yeah

[Verse 2]
Burnin' out, strung along, now my sorrow is my song
My whole world is half-hearted
For my pain, I have none, after all is said and done
Now I'm back where I started, oh

[Chorus 2]
(And I want) I've gone as far as I can
(And I need) I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall) But I am running a race
Against myself, against myself, yeah

[Bridge]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh!
[Chorus 3]
(And I want) I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need) I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall) But I am losin' the race
Against myself, against myself, yeah

[Outro]
Against myself
