Pushing

[Chorus:]
I've been pushing all my life, all my life, all my life
I've been pushing all my life
I've been pushing all my life, all my life, all my life
I've been pushing all my life.

For some want to see right through all the false alarms I've pulled
For some want to stand their ground when I start to tear them down
Someone to outlast the home that hold me back
For someone to make it past the guards of a cynical hearts
Sick, sick of singing now.

Oh, I always jump ship
We are closer than I've ever been
I said we stay in the fire
And hope we can burn our way out
The road to my heart gets hot as hell.

[Chorus:]

For someone to call me out when I start to run my mouth
For someone to talk me down of ledges that I have found
Someone to hold me close when I'm screaming to let go
For someone to make it past the guards of a cynical hearts
Sick, sick of singing now.

Oh, I always jump ship
We are closer than I've ever been
I said we stay in the fire
And hope we can burn our way out
The road to my heart gets hot as hell.

[Chorus]

I know that it's not fair to think that you'll still be there
I know that it's not fair
But if you leave when the pattern repeats
I'm pushing you away but that's not what I mean
Oh I'm ashamed that I cannot believe
That this is what it takes just to get close to me
Is this what it takes just to get close to me?

Oh, I always jump ship
We are closer than I've ever been.

Oh, I always jump ship
We are closer than I've ever been
I said we stay in the fire
And hope we can burn our way out
The road to my heart gets hot as hell.

[Chorus]
