Songtext von Settle For Less

Late last night or was it morning Outside the rain was pouring I stumbled out I hit the ground It's a hell of a scene but there's no story Designed in all it's glory To set you up and knock you down Just a reflection on my bitterness Why plant the seed and not do the rest? Just a distraction from the meaningless I'd rather bleed than settle for less Was told at the time to just keep going You'll fly but don't stop rowing Reached for the moon and hit the ground Is this a chip upon my shoulder? As heavy as a boulder? When all the world owes you a crown Just a reflection on my emptiness You don't succeed by chasing success No reputation is worth all this mess I'd rather bleed than settle for less Just a reflection on my happiness Only compete with yourself at your best A separation from the self I possess Just let it be and settle for less
