Better on Tape - Idealistic

I bet you know someone who's out there listening
Who wanders life lost and listless
Another year without a mistake
Without an unexpected emotion

So gather all the money you can
And hold it tightly with both hands
Or blow it all as fast as you can
Your perfect world is slipping away, slipping away

And you're turning to an overreaction
Like gambling everything away
You can't admit you made a mistake
Without thinking through the choices you made

So gather all the comforts you can
And hold them tightly with both hands
Or waste them all as fast as you can
Your perfect world is slipping away, slipping away

Have you ever thought about the way you should think
Deciding how to weight all the decisions you make
Step away so you can see outside your own small world
Admit to yourself you're not apart from your own mistakes

So make the right choice maybe
Your perfect world is slipping
Make the right choice maybe
Your perfect world is slipping away, slipping away
