Graded on a Curve — текст песни (Face To Face)

It`s a waste of time
It`s a race that can`t be won
Call the whole thing off
Well that`s easier said than done
And I try to shut it out
And I think I`ve figured out
That it makes no sense to compare what I`ve done

So what do I do now that I`m alone?
I`ve been building up and tearing down
and looking for what never can be found

So what do I do now that I`m alone?
God I tried so hard to get here
but still I`m averaged out
Graded on a curve

Put the blinders on and believe in someone else
You`re not what they want that`s exactly what they sell
And it`s all been preordained but it`s never quite the same
Once you`ve figured out that it makes no sense

And I don`t care if I`m the one who makes mistakes
And I don`t care how long this is going to take
Does it really matter how you played the game
when you were never really in it
