Catching Up
[Intro]
I can try, I can fight, but they'll always be this distance
Is it me? The way I am? Is it just how it's been written
I'm strong enough, I know that, but there's far more that I lack
I'm forever catching up, catching up, catching up to you

[Verse 1]
Seeing what you earn, now these bitter words, I can taste them on the tip of my tongue (on the tip of my tongue)
Falling off the curve, now you're racing to be first, is there any more I could've done (I have done more)
If I trained harder, if my brain was smarter, would the outcome be the same (be the same)
Keep my guard up, but it cracks my armour, will these efforts all be in vain

[Chorus]
I can try, I can fight, but they'll always be this distance
Is it me? The way I am? Is it just how it's been written
I'm strong enough, I know that, but there's far more that I lack
I'm forever catching up, catching up, catching up to you
They became what they're meant to be, but now this wave of jealousy
Is drowning me, I can't breathe, but they deserve it
They found places I could never reach, looked out beyond, what I could ever see
But they deserve it, they deserve it, why don't I deserve it

[Verse 2]
Am I selfish, I can't help it, I was destined, I thought
Acting reckless, but the message that I'm sending now seems flawed
Can I mend this redirect my soul
Find another way to achieve my goal
I'll be at your side, swallowing my pride
Although it kills inside
[Chorus]
I can try, I can fight, but they'll always be this distance
Is it me? The way I am? Is it just how it's been written
I'm strong enough, I know that, but there's far more that I lack
I'm forever catching up, catching up, catching up to you
They became what they're meant to be, but now this wave of jealousy
Is drowning me, I can't breathe, but they deserve it
They found places I could never reach, looked out beyond, what I could ever see
But they deserve it, they deserve it, why don't I deserve it

[Outro]
It's killing me, it's killing me, it's killing me
