The Never Latelys - One Track Mind

Your greatest strength was your endurance
You had the will to see it through
Your one track mind has reached the station
Two fingers to the doubts in you

You took rejection as a reason
Your motivation fuelled by spite
The river flowed throughout the heatwave
Until the autumn leaves did fall

And paradise was never easy
Sometimes I don't know where to turn
And all the while you had it easy
Your pride would feed my jealousy

The hero sits quiet in the corner
Modest looks belie his past
The charlatan tells tales from his bar stool
He knows nobody cares but never asks

An old man sits upon the bar stool
Each line on his face could tell a tale
Staring straight at whisky bottles
No one hears his stories now
No one hears his stories now

And paradise was never easy
Sometimes I don't know where to turn
And all the while you had it easy
Your pride would feed my jealousy
Your pride would feed my jealousy
