A Vague Ambition Lyrics by Gates (NJ)

2011

[Verse 1]
On the horizon, there's a hope we'll all amount to greater things
But we let the paths to them get broken
Why do we accept that we'll never reach an end
Where vices and regrets are not the truth, and not the cure
[Chorus]
We are lying
We are lying
This won’t ever stop, we are lying to ourselves
[Verse 2]
Between the margins, therе's a marginal desire to be somеthing
But we let the words written within them hold us back
So why let this context become the meaning when it's just
A pretense of abstract convictions never meant to be
[Chorus]
(We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
(We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
(We won't ever stop, we won't ever stop)
(We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
(We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
(We won't ever stop, we won't ever stop)
We (We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
Are (We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
Lying (We won't ever stop, we won't ever stop)
We (We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
Are (We can't help ourselves, can't turn it around)
Lying (We are lying to ourselves)
