Human Condition

When I was 17
I had to do it all before I turned 21
Then life got in the way
And now I've only just begun
And I feel like I've been here too long
Done too little too late
Just spinning 'round and 'round
In this perpetual state
But I can't explain
This sweet self inflicted pain
Of my human condition
Well it sure looks like fun
To throw your money around
Maybe I could have some
Maybe then I could be free
Well maybe I don't want to be
?Cause this might be paradise
Just jumping up and down
On this very thin ice
But I can't explain
This sweet self inflicted pain
Of my human condition
And I know it's easier to want what you can't have
And I know it's easier to think the grass is always greener
On the other side....
Well, there're too many hearts
Searching for some peace of mind
Maybe what you've got
Is the best you'll ever find
And I can't explain
This sweet self inflicted pain
Of the human condition
