The fault in my mind is that it is mine
I give no one a chance to hear me whine

I think I am simple but that's not the case I'm speeding through life, but it's not a race

I've no time for this I need to exceed
The goals that everyone has for me

Failure's my fear and this is my truth
So as I accel, I'm not running from you

I run so fast I can't pay attention
I run from people who show me affection

This is absurd but that's not my view
If I could explain it you'd see it too
"Its not you, it's me"
