lyrics

Somewhere in my life
These feelings are wearing me down
Like the time
The time that I spent
And I’m fighting my ways
I’m fighting my ways
Like the time
The time that I spent
Maybe I’m chasing my mind
Maybe I’m chasing time
Maybe I’m chasing the night
Maybe you’ll help me get there
Chasing time
Somewhere in the night
All, all those involved can’t get it right
Maybe I’m feeling scared
Maybe you’ll help me get there
Maybe I’m chasing my mind
Maybe chasing time
Maybe I’m chasing the night
Maybe chasing time
Maybe I’m chasing the night
Maybe you’ll help me get there
