This is not the way it's Supposed to be Spend my day in fear of all It sets me free I beg your pardon For what I do and say I can hold myself to blame But the sure remains the same Will success fail me? Will it make me free? What they tell me I should want? Is it what I need?
Hey Mom, Hey Dad The story went Round the burning wheels of faith It pays the rent Hey sister, hey brother I had to choose Choose between the win and lose But what's the use? Will success fail me? Will it make me free? What they tell me I should want? Is it what I need? Come March come April Come may and June
Let the pounding seconds go There's nothing I can do Will success fail me? Will it make me free? What they tell me I should want? Is it what I need? (2x) Is there something I can do?
