Between The Forest And The Trees

I put so much pressure on myself
To achieve things just out of reach
I'm going blind or I just can't see
A forest in these trees

Days pass and weeks pass
And I still wonder why
Days pass and weeks pass
And I still can't make this right

Take it away and lead me astray
A self defeating prophecy
With a catalyst of collusion
Take it away and lead me astray
From the sharpest of words
Centred in on my direction

Searching for a purpose
A measure of my worth
Questioning my existence
And longing for some distance
I drag myself backwards
Over problems I can't solve
I burden my mind with
The promise of being absolved

You'll find me somewhere between
The forest and the trees
Begging on my knees
And pleading for silence
For the ringing in my mind
Becomes louder every hour
I fear I'm losing sight
Of my ever moving finish line

Take it away and lead me astray
A self defeating prophecy
With a catalyst of collusion
Take it away and lead me astray
From the sharpest of words
Centred in on my direction
A lust to learn to disconnect
From the guilt and the burden
Don't look up to me
But don't look down on everything
Take it away and lead me astray
Take it away and lead me astray
