Bottle This Lyrics - Minority Of One - Dag Nasty

So tired of trying to keep up with someone else`s pace 

you got a new tattoo, but the same old face 

complacency is the enemy and I`ve been acting old 

there`s got to be more to life than doing what we`re told 

you can`t bottle this - it always slips away 

shut out - of a dream we had not long ago 

there`s nothing to prove, nothing to show 

we`ve been told all this before 

so why am I still keeping score 

constraints are all around you every single day 

when you`re feeling overloaded you can`t run away 

and everywhere you go there`s another wall in life 

no matter where you look there`s no end in sight 

you can`t bottle this - it always slips away 

shut out - of a dream we had not long ago 

nothing to prove, nothing to show 

we`ve been told all this before 

and I`m still keeping score 

I understand you`ve got pressure`s 

but I can`t accept your reaction 

it`s been a long road 

is it all a distraction? 

birth, school, work, death 

these are things we all have to accept 

and sometimes it feels like you`re hitting a wall 

I can`t make sense of it all 

shut up! 

it`s another time and another place 

get a different view and a brand new take 

it`s a brand new day, it`s a brand new day 

brand new day 

it`s a brand new day 

brand new day
