16 Times
16 times a day I look in the mirror and cry
16 times a day I look in the mirror and lie
All this time I've shook my head
All this time I've laughed instead
Then those times are seen ahead
Then those times need all that's said
All this time I've heard a tale
All this time I'd always fail
Then those times are for the jail
Then those times need all the hale
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
I built a wooden bridge
You had a flaming match
I'm headed for the sunken ridge
Where is my escape hatch
They told me hey boy you can't
I said that was an old rant
I've been around old nonsense
But I have good common sense
One million chances
One billion chances
One trillion chances
I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
Time will never tell me when I'll hear
The finishing bells in the end
Maybe they are just playing in my head
Sometimes they all say give up son
Sometimes they all say you are done
Sometimes they all say there is none
Sometimes they all make me numb
One million chances
One billion chances
One trillion chances
I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times a day I look in the mirror and cry
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times a day I look in the mirror and lie
All this time I've shook my head
All this time I've laughed instead
Then those times are seen ahead
Then those times need all that's said
All this time I've heard a tale
All this time I'd always fail
Then those times are for the jail
Then those times need all the hale
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
I built a wooden bridge

Where is my escape hatch

I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping

16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times a day I look in the mirror and cry

16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
16 times and I'm still up and running
16 times there is no point in stopping
16 times there will be no more ending
16 times I will never stop running
