Average aussie dad - new words.

I’m getting tired for reasons I can’t seem to control,
I keep repeating all the same old miseries.
It seems my way of thinking is my biggest downfall.
We fall and get back up
But life just gets a kick from holding me.
I struggle daily with a past that I can’t run from.
This record player always jumps back to the same old place.
I’m feeling broken like my better years have passed me.
I’ve fallen, how the fuck
Do people manage to stay in the race?

Do I just keep on living
All the while dreaming?
I’m too scared I’ll get in the way.
But soon I’ll be over,
This moment, it’s over.
Watch as I’m fading away.

I’m taken back to when my life really had no one.
The only difference is the numbing of the pain.
Youth would see me drink the problems out of this one.
I’d fall and get back up
The sore head wasn’t all that would remain.

Do I just keep on living
All the while dreaming?
I’m too scared I’ll get in the way.
But soon I’ll be over,
This moment, it’s over.
Watch as I’m fading away.
