Hack The Sides Away

Right now's the problem
'Cause I'm shooting blanks again
Something comes to twist me
And I'm getting weak again

Still disappointed
I'm choking on the past
This is just a wash-out
I'm waiting to be last
Can I just pretend?
Can I just pretend?
I'll hack the sides away
I went ahead and hacked the sides away
Without respect to age

Coughing it up for the man (4x)

My time is shining
And I'm clocking up again
Attempts to be impressive
Left me clocking up again
Can I just pretend?
Can I just pretend?
I chop the sides away
I went ahead and chopped the sides away
This is how you fade

Coughing it up to the man (2x)
Coughing it up for the man (3x)

I can't sustain it
I feel like dancing
This time is changing
