Lost Cause

I always thought
I would end up doing something special
I planned it out and put it in my schedule
I thought I had it figured out
And I was taught
If you pay your dues you get a paycheck
But I put in the time ain't gotten paid yet
So I don't know what that's about
Wonder if I'm getting any closer
If anything is right around the corner
I tell myself to keep working harder and getting farther
Am I just a lost cause
Or am I feeling lost cause
I can't tell the difference
Between my fear and intuition
Am I just a lost cause
Or just a little off course
I can't make a decision
So I keep waiting I keep wishing
My mama called
I brushed it off when she asked what I'm doing
The truth is I don't really have a clue and
And I didn't wanna let her down
Wonder if I'm getting any closer
If anything is right around the corner
I tell myself to keep working harder why do I bother
Am I just a lost cause
Or am I feeling lost cause
I can't tell the difference
Between my fear and intuition
Am I just a lost cause
Or just a little off course
I can't make a decision
So I keep waiting I keep wishing
I keep waiting I keep wishing
Always a day away from quitting
But when I'm just about to give in
Something won't let me let go
Am I just a lost cause
Or am I feeling lost cause
I can't tell the difference
Between my fear and intuition
Am I just a lost cause
Or just a little off course
I can't make a decision
So I keep waiting I keep wishing
Am I just a lost cause
Or am I feeling lost cause
I can't tell the difference
