I Just Wanna Finish

This headache I got, this stress I'm in....

The finish line is so far away in order for me to win, but I just wanna finish.

One day to another it's something different, last minute to say something with no time to get it together, now we're in a struggle.

I just wanna cross that finish line, complete this race, but I feel this is déjà vu because I know in a few the sky will no longer be blue and i will not be singing to you, for you got us into this situation.

This situation, this mess that it seems I am left to clean and I have no cleaning supplies for I am only a teen, and if I do clean, you, YOU would just get mad that I didn't do it your way.... but your way probably got is into this situation in the first place.

First place, first place in the race is where I wanted to be,

But it seems I am only one to see the struggle beneath the smile that hides my frown, I show no one.

Good at hiding my emotions when I am sad but when I am mad... things are not the same, at a different ball game.

With this headache I got, this stress I'm in...

Your at a ten, and I need you lower than a three when your talking to me.

For this situation is because of you but I can't be mad anymore and hide that I got so much love for you.
