Whoa-o...i've been banging my head against the wall

Whoa-o...for so long it seems i knocked it down, yeah it got

Knocked down

Whoa-o...and the heating bill went through the roof

Whoa-o...and the wall i knocked down was the proof

That my landlord needed to kick me out

I got evicted now i'm living on the street

My spirits lifted...oh wait, that wasn't me

Too many turns have turned out to be wrong

This time i learned that, i knew it all along

When car crashes occur

Then i'll be what you were

When i see what i should

When i see that it's good (that it's good)

To experience the bittersweet

To taste defeat

Then brush my teeth

Experience the bittersweet

To taste defeat

Then brush my teeth

Cause i struggle with forward motion

I struggle with forward motion

We all struggle with forward motion

Cause forward motion is harder than it sounds

Well everytime i gain some ground

I gotta turn myself around again

It's harder than it sounds

Well everytime i gain some ground

I gotta turn myself around again

Whoa-o...i've been banging my head against the wall

Whoa-o...for so long it seems i got knocked out. yeah, i got

Knocked out cold

Whoa-o...and the medical bills went through the roof

Whoa-o...and the scar on my head is the proof

That i'll still remember this when i get old

I got evicted now i'm living on the street

My spirits lifted...oh wait, that wasn't me

Too many turns have turned out to be wrong

This time i learned that, i knew it all along

When i grasp the concept

Then i'll sleep where you slept

When i know i need help

When i allow myself (allow myself)

To experience the bittersweet

To taste defeat

Then brush your teeth

Experience the bittersweet

To taste defeat

Then brush your teeth

Cause i struggle with forward motion

I struggle with forward motion

We all struggle with forward motion

Cause forward motion is harder than it sounds

Well everytime i gain some ground

I gotta turn myself around again

It's harder than it sounds

Well everytime i gain some ground

I gotta turn myself around again

Cause i struggle with forward motion

Cause i struggle with forward motion

We all struggle with forward motion

[in background:]

(cause forward motion is harder than it sounds.

Well everytime i gain some ground

I gotta turn myself around again

Cause forward motion is harder than it sounds

Well everytime i gain some ground

I gotta turn myself around again)

Cause i struggle with forward motion

Cause i struggle with forward motion

We all struggle with forward motion

Cause i struggle with forward motion

Cause i struggle with forward motion

We all struggle with forward motion
