One step forward and two steps back Always keeps you searching for the things you lack Like a mad dog yanking at a rusty chain Your trapped in a orbit around an ever growing drain
So you hold out hope like a ignorant dope You got to keep that flame alive And you learn to cope by ignoring the scope Keeps existence justified
There’s always one more shot when it’s all you got The lies can keep it real It’s all you need to plant that seed When the devils there to make a deal
Damn this world of frustration Can’t climb out this hole Damn this world of frustration It’s taking a toll
Everyone’s shouting and no one hears It’s been the same old story for untold countless years Your just poor lost fool on an endless chase There will be another poor fool to take your empty place
