Until It Gets to You - A Close Second

You’re on your way down from a high
You probably never thought could get so low
Even with all of those
Consequences that you’ve faced
In spite of all these honest years
Of dedication leading to this
Point and then it hits you all at once
That you belong here
It still can’t cover up the things
That you have always feared
You’ve got to make things right
You’re fading away out of sight
Settle for nothing less
It’s what you’ve wanted all of your life
Every time you make a move
It all comes right back in your face
What if you lost it all
To the ones that never took the chance
To find themselves
Just take a look around you
You’ve got this place packed
Full of kids who know your words
Just what are your expectations
They had to have been exceeded
You put too much on yourself
It’s the reason that your
Back to where you started
And you feel like you’ve gone nowhere
Just asked yourself where you f**ked up
And when life stopped being fair
You’ve got to make things right
You’re fading away out of sight
Settle for nothing less
It’s what you’ve wanted all of your life
You’re coming into the light
Always remember the fight
Settle for nothing less
You gave your life for what you had
You’re on your way down
You’re on your way down
You can’t get up
It’s taking over you now
You’ve got to figure it out
Because there’s not much time
Until it gets to you
You’re on your way down
You’re on your way down
You can’t get up
It’s taking over you now
You’ve got to figure it out
Because there’s not much time
Until it gets to you
