Calling for an even number I need some reality Looking for some sanity Paved the way and I didn't wonder Whatever more could ever be What adventure I might see If I gave the best of me It's not so hard to understand No one wants to feel they don't live Up to their own standards It happens time and time again I get this feeling like I won't quite Have the final answers Time and time again Time and time again Looking for a level surface Somewhere I can be me Take me back to my old street I'll pretend I'm starting over Find a way to plant my feet And then chase down all my dreams And just give the best of me In the spotlight I'll confess Yeah, I'm just like you and don't live Up to my own standards Here it comes around again I get this feeling like I won't quite Have the final answers Time and time again In the spotlight I'll confess I don't wanna make amends I'll be happy with this mess Time and time again
