I debated on whether or not to record this song. I ended up deciding to go ahead with it, since at one point it was an honest emotion that I had, and it is an honest emotion other people probably have too.

lyrics

So close, how's it go?
but still a million miles away
and traveling in the other direction
further and further every day
until the memory of what had been
is just a speck on the horizon
that you scan for signs of hope
but find nothing to lay your eyes on
because it's gone

You're never going to find what you're looking for
no you're never going to find what you're looking for
you might as well go ahead and settle for second best
you're never going to find what you're looking for
she already walked out the door
you might as well go ahead and settle for second best

you just imagined it, you say
to try and deal with the pain
I fabricated this kind of romance
real people don't feel this way
I'm a victim of poetry, and love songs
and my own petty hope
and the list of the disillusioned
is pretty long
so at least I'm not alone.

You're never going to find what you're looking for
no you're never going to find what you're looking for
you might as well go ahead and settle for second best
you're never going to find what you're looking for
she already walked out the door
you might as well go ahead and settle for second best

So close, how's it go?
but still a million miles away
oh, I'm done waiting for someday to be today

Oh I know I can find what I'm looking for
I know I can find what I'm looking for
I won't give this heart over to distress
