Post 575: Inertia (4/27/10)

Inertia (3/7/10 c, 4/27/10 w)

It’s getting, getting harder to move

It’s getting harder to breathe

Try as I might, I know I can’t ever leave

Leave all my dreams behind

Though I know, I know they’ve already died

It’s hard to move forward when you’re stuck in the past

It’s hard to get up, get up when you know the thrill won’t last

It’s hard to live, when you know you don’t have a plan

Trying not to leave it up to fate

But maybe it’s already too, already too late

Inertia holding me, holding me here

It’s hard to move forward when you’re living in the past

But I can’t move forward, I don’t know how

Inertia is holding me in place as the clocks race

We all have our dreams
Our visions of future things and how it will be

How it will be

But I can’t visualize a scenario anymore

Anymore when I can survive with a glimmer of hope

So much time, time has passed me by

And little by little the light has faded from my life

It’s hard to move forward when you’re stuck in the past

It’s hard to get up, get up when you know the thrill won’t last

It’s hard to live, when you know you don’t have a plan

Trying not to leave it up to fate

But maybe it’s already too, already too late

Inertia holding me, holding me here

It’s hard to move forward when you’re living in the past

But I can’t move forward, I don’t know how

Inertia is holding me in place as the clocks race

So many chances I couldn’t take

Couldn’t take paralyzed by fear

But here I am still here

Living maybe it’s true

But this doesn’t feel like what living people do

All my hopes and dreams haunting me

Trying to chase them and find happiness

But if I can’t plan

I won’t, I won’t understand

And there is no such thing as a dream, a dream come true

Except maybe, maybe for you

It’s hard to move forward when you’re stuck in the past

It’s hard to get up, get up when you know the thrill won’t last

It’s hard to live, when you know you don’t have a plan

Trying not to leave it up to fate

But maybe it’s already too, already too late

Inertia holding me, holding me here

It’s hard to move forward when you’re living in the past

But I can’t move forward, I don’t know how

Inertia is holding me in place as the clocks race
