Lately, I've been measuring mistakes that I've been making

It's classic overreaching, stretching way beyond my station

Wherever I've been drinking lends a small amount of solace

That's inversely proportional to how badly I want it

So long ambition

It's not a competition

I can't win anymore

I can't win anymore

An odd position

But I got the suspicion

I have been here before

I have been here before

Every single word from you is uncomfortably appealing

And reservation's telling me to forget what I'm hearing

Part of me is screaming, you should just come out and ask her

As if there were a chance in hell, that'll get me what I'm after

So long ambition

It's not a competition

I can't win anymore

I can't win anymore

An odd position

But I got the suspicion

I have been here before

I have been here before

For my imagination is unnerving me of working overtime (oh-oh-oh)

This kind of aggravation just seems perfectly designed to keep me up at night (oh-oh-oh)

It keeps me up at night

It keeps me up at night

Alright

So long ambition

It's not a competition

I can't win anymore

I can't win anymore

An odd position

But I got the suspicion

I have been here before

I have been here before

I have been here before

I have been here before
