Kill Your Idols - I Told You So

from Split by Various

lyrics

Staring out ahead to the horizon where the sun sets,
At the end of this black line (my fears are close behind)
My hopes and dreams distorted by the cracks,
Inside the windshield that seem to grow and grow
(if I don't try i'll never know)
These things ain't easy and I knew they'd never be,
But I always thought there was a fire deep inside of me.
And as long as I keep trying, the flame will never die.
There's so much I want to say, a wall of doubt stands in my way.
So many paths for me to choose, so much to gain so much to lose. And if I fail will you tell me 'I told you so?'
These things ain't easy and i knew they'd never be,
But i always thought there was a fire deep inside of me.
And as long as i keep trying, the flame will never die.
Life is a gamble, just a roll of the dice.
It's all or nothing now cause there's no chance to do this twice.
Just don't seem fair, at least I can say 'I tried'.
One chance, one chance to live.
It has taken everything that I could give.
Broken promises and broken dreams,
And nothing ever is the way it seems.
Stubborn pride and blind faith.
When will you grow up for heavens sake?
Just a little more, we're almost there.
But time is slipping, time is slipping away.
Can't see the future and I know that things seem bad.
Why must I compromise and live a life that makes me sad?
So many other people to please besides myself.
These things ain't easy and I knew they'd never be,
But I always thought there was a fire deep inside of me.
And as long as I keep trying, the flame will never die.
Life is a gamble, just a roll of the dice.
It's all or nothing now, cause there's no chance to do this twice.
Just don't seem fair.
At least i can say 'i tried,'
'I told you so'.
