Finish Line

Available on: Finish Line | Open in Spotify 

Back when nothing was a no go
Checking off goals with a crossbow
Just one thing on his mind.
He was gonna find a way

Decisions to the marrow.
Through all them back alleys, just go go!
He knew what he would do
whatever someone threw his way

Then out of his own head again
How to make it through the decadence
That never ends

I do everything for you
It’s likely that we all be fine
Figuring it out in time
Damn hard to live up to and
I’m falling on the finish line (every time)
Will never stop – I’m gonna follow through

All those years of preparation
With the final boss of aspiration
Imaginary interview
about the big breakthrough

Had my own radio station
A pretend publication
Cover of every magazine and
a proper dream machine too

Then out of his own head again
Trying simmer through the decadence
That never ends

I do everything for you
It’s likely that we all be fine
Figuring it out in time
Damn hard to live up to and
I’m falling on the finish line (every time)
Will never stop – I’m gonna follow through
