VERSE 1
Something
Is better than nothing.
But nothing
Is all I’ve got.
And I don’t like that.
I need to change that fact.
CHORUS
I need a greater motivator
Than fear to make me move.
I don’t work well when scared.
I don’t work well under pressure.
I let my fear fester
Into inaction
With no satisfaction.
I need some magic refuge.
Some intrinsic value.
Where is my self confidence
Telling me to take a chance
That I’ve got nothing to lose?
My greater motivator
To make me want to do what I’ve gotta do.
VERSE 2
I don’t need
To make it perfect
To make it worth it.
And I know that’s true.
But I can’t seem to
Get myself started.
It’s really hard cuz this
Is something that I’ve gotta prove
That I can do
All by myself.
Without anybody else’s help.
And I wonder if all I have
Is enough to get me through.
And I don’t mean to
Be pessimistic.
But I’m going ballistic.
I wish that this
Was all over so that I could just move on.
I know that I’m approaching things all wrong.
Cuz
CHORUS
