lyrics

They tell me I'll get better with time,
that's hard to believe cause I'm losing my peace of mind
one by one as days go by,
I'm poisoned by lack of pertinence,
consistence is something I'll never get,
Directions escaped my years ago,
So I wish that it would come back home,

But the road keeps on winding,
and progress is slow,
Will direction ever find me?
to tell me which way to go?

Maybe if I was better designed,
I'd start to believe and stop wasting my peace of mind,
day by day I'm wasting time,
I'm poisoned by lack of pertinence,
consistence is something I'll never get,
Directions escaped my years ago,
So I wish that it would come back home,

But the road keeps on winding,
and progress is slow,
Will direction ever find me?
to tell me which way to go?

I'm poisoned by belligerence
from all of these answers I'll never get,
I'm poisoned by lack of pertinence
consistence is something I'll never get,
I's kill for progress I'm moving too slow,
I'm over this process just leave me alone
