Square Wheels

Time after time, I can't go too many days Without some type of complication standing in my Way. No matter what I do, don't matter how hard I try, Something comes out of nowhere, pokes me in the Eye. Take one step forward, two steps back, I can't seem to get ahead. I can't help but wonder, should I even get Out of bed? Sometimes this road of life might seem just a Little bit rough, But even when it's smooth, somehow I'll mess it Up. Nobody knows. What's hiding behind my smile. Don't let it show. What I'm feeling like inside. Where do we go? Where do I go from here? Sometimes I feel like I'm driving on square wheels. I try and try, I can't seem to follow Through. Why I keep on stumbling, I haven't got a Clue. Could it be the way the stars line up Or could it be my destiny? This self-defeating state of mind sure has a hold On me. So I'll keep my poker face, try not to Tip my hand. Don't bother trying to explain it, no one will Understand. Another day, another chance to try to make it Right. I'm heading down that tunnel, But I still can't see the light. Nobody knows. What's hiding behind my smile. Don't let it show. What I'm feeling like inside. Where do we go? Where do I go from here? Sometimes I feel like I'm driving on square wheels. It's a no-win situation when you're working hard all Day. Come home broke and tired, Got no time to play. You're fighting with the traffic, you're fighting With your spouse. When the weekend comes, I'll be fighting with the House. Just when I think I got myself going in The right direction, I'm down for the count, Got myself some infection. Well, I'll just keep on working, working hard just To get ahead. A few more years of this and I'll be Lying dead. Nobody knows. What's hiding behind my smile. Don't let it show. What I'm feeling like inside. Where do we go? Where do I go from here? Sometimes I feel like I'm driving on square wheels.
