Not Giving In

Looking back
From where I came
At a choice I made
That was one big mistake
Cause in the crowd
I tried to hide
Couldn't keep the pace
So I had to break the stride

Can't punch the clock
Can't walk the walk
Abhor the rut
And never stop
Your life is not for me

Every step
That I tried to take
Was a step behind
Lost in the wake
And every truth
It became a lie
One question asked
That question is 'why?'

I'm giving up but I'm not giving in
I'll make the stand
Not to stand in line
