Bayside – Not Fair lyrics

Well it has been my point of view
We’re born with our backs against the wall
So what’s a modern man to do?
But to emulate the angry faces staring back at you

These are trying times
I believe in you
But there’s still a place where the strange fit in

My friend, don’t look down
You’ve got to face what’s in front of you now
Don’t waste your time making excuses
'Cause son you’re about to find out
You might just figure out
What you’re made of

Oh I remember twenty-five
Thinking I’d figured out my life
And I was positive the hardest part was through
After six records and two marriages
I’m still here paying dues

These are trying times
I believe in you
But there’s still a place where the strange fit in

My friend, don’t look down
You’ve got to face what’s in front of you now
Don’t waste your time making excuses
'Cause son you’re about to find out
That this is all a theme park
With a creepy carousel
Stop spinning around in circles
It’s time you helped yourself
You might just figure out
What you’re made of

Don’t let them try to change us
Don’t let them shut your mouth
Trust me I know, yeah I know
You don’t always reap what you sow
Life’s not fair, like we hoped
You’re not stuck with the path you chose
You’re not stuck with the path you chose

Don’t look down
You’ve got to face what’s in front of you now
Don’t waste your time making excuses
'Cause son you’re about to find out
That this is all a theme park
With a creepy carousel
Stop spinning around in circles
It’s time you helped yourself
You might just figure out
What you’re made of
