Duckpond

Everybody is leaving, from this town and from me

They've got the burning flame, they sure achieve their aim

You know that's tough for me to see

Oh, how I wish I could do the same as them and go

Just pack my bags and good-bye

Get out fast or fade away real slow



'Cause what you see is what you get right here

Where a change is nowhere near

What you see is what you get from me

In this duckpond leave me be



Pretend my life is perfect, like the faces on TV

Yeah, that's the only way to face another day

Try to deny the misery

But those are the way of looney's, and like a clown

Yeah, I do act

No matter where I could be or would like to go

I'm stuck here, that's a fact



I'm too weak, I'm down on my knees

Too feeble for something new

Feels like there's nothing I can do

Keep on laughing 'bout me

Keep on doing your own

But someday I will be that one



Be that one

Yeah someday I will be that one...
