i recognise you

sometimes you look at your life

and find yourself surprised

what happened to your ideals and intentions

you kept inside?

and what if your ideal life 

is built on compromise?

sometimes i look in the mirror

and see defeat

in my eyes

 

and when you look around you

you realise there's so little you can do

(who told you? who told you?)

i'd like to achieve something

someday

tomorrow

i'll try

but i recognise you

seen you before 

it's apathy

She says

'What am i doing here?'

Well that's a good question

i recognise you

seen you before 

you're the thinker

between my thoughts

i recognise you

seen you before 

you've the answer

when i'm unsure

tell me what you're thinking

actually don't bother

you share your thoughts with us

then laugh to one another

but 

i recognise you

seen you before 

you're the thinker

between my thoughts

i recognise you

seen you before 

you've the answer

when i'm unsure

i recognise you
