Old Man from Experience EP by The Mr. Clark Experience

I look to the water and I see myself.
All of my achievements fit on a shelf.
I know the reason for why I'm here:
There was an old man who made me want to disappear.

Hard work doesn't bring you jack.
Only makes you want to go back.

Why do I have to be on his list?
I try so much only to be dismissed.

The things I do to understand,
I feel the void beginning to expand.

I've lived and I've learned now let me die.
I'm tired of trying to be the perfect guy.

Old man you're in control.
The competition is eating my soul.
Old man do you even know.
You're making me look to the water below.
Old man the words you say,
give me a reason to go away.

I take a step closer towards the ledge.
I feel myself slipping off the edge.
Why can't my opinion satisfy?
You make me hate me, myself, and I.

Sometimes it's hard to see,
when the meaning has fled from me.
But today's the day that I open my eyes.
Finally I'm gonna leave the lies.

The things I do to understand,
I feel the void beginning to expand.

I've lived and I've learned now let me die.
I'm tired of trying to be the perfect guy.

Old man you're in control.
The competition is eating my soul.
Old man do you even know.
You're making me look to the water below.
Old man the words you say,
give me a reason to go away.
