The Offspring - Race Against Myself Lyrics

The Offspring Lyrics

"Race Against Myself"

All I want, all I need
Always lies just out of reach
I've been coming up empty
I've run as fast as I can run
I've pushed as hard as anyone
Still, there's nothing for me

(And I want)
I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am running a race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah

Burning out, strung along
Now my sorrow is my song
My whole world is half-hearted
For my pain I have none
After all is said and done
Now I'm back where I started

(And I want)
I've gone as far as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am running a race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah

(And I want)
I've tried as hard as I can
(And I need)
I've taken all I can stand
(And I fall)
But I am losing the race
Against myself
Against myself, yeah
Against myself
