Nothing Is Permanent (In This Wicked World. Not Even Our Problems) Lyrics

One day you'll see
That there's more to life that you're not willing to be
One day I hope that you'll get it together someday
So I'm having trouble sleeping
And lately I've had too much to think
This feeling is never fleeting
It's just a matter of time before we all sink
I lost the battle, so I will retreat
But I'm too relentless
I won't accept my defeat

I can't recall the time when this wasn't on my mind
No matter how hard I look, it's all I find
It's dragging me down with every day I spend
I'm fed up with my selfish tendencies

Give it to me straight
Look me in the face
I'm ready to hear the truth
I'm the best thing for you, and here's the proof
Because it's always on my mind
I lost the battle, so I will retreat
But I'm too relentless
I won't accept my defeat

I can't recall the time when this wasn't on my mind
No matter how hard I look, it's all I find
It's dragging me down with every day I spend
I'm fed up with my selfish tendencies
