Keeping Score

I need to stop myself
From becoming who I am
Because without you needing me
I'm just an ordinary man

I don't worry 'bout the prices when left to my own devices
You should know by now
When the clock stops ticking
I don't wanna be the one that's left sticking around

I can't help myself
You know I can't believe my eyes
I wanna tell you what I'm seeing
But I can't ruin the surprise

You've all been patiently waiting
Just to watch me finally get what I deserve
My next mistake is gonna break me, but I guess by now I've lost my nerve
I'll never learn

What do they say about me?
He lies, he cheats to get everything he needs and maybe more
What will they say about me?
I don't need to know 'cause I'm not keeping score
Anymore

You need to slow it down
You don't know how to take it easy
You're running here and running there
Yeah you don't always have to please me

And if you cross that wire, I can help you but you'll have to wait your turn
I didn't start this fire but I sure as hell am gonna let it burn
I'll never learn

What do they say about me?
He lies, he cheats to get everything he needs and maybe more
What will they say about me?
I don't need to know 'cause I'm not keeping score
Anymore
Keeping score

I need to stop myself
