The Fountainhead

Wasn't it you who said
that when looking to open the eyes in my head
And now I can see
from your mistakes
You're as blind as me
God knows I've tried
God knows I've tried
To be something more than I am
Hell could feasably freeze
But in your eyes I'll always be
The fountainhead
the boy whose thoughts keep running away
and you know I'm right

What can I say without being profound?
It's the game that we play, it goes round and around
I shall stick to the rules but I won't suffer fools
And I won't lose the plot and I won't lose my cool
Can't you see what I've done?
Can't you see what I do?
It's not really unique and it's hopelessly cruel
But these are my decisions, these are my mistakes
And I'll fall down again - if that's what it takes
