There was a time when I had it all figured out
When I thought I knew what life was all about
I thought I had an upper-hand on life's little games
I was the rest of life would surely be the same

Eventually I found myself sitting all alone
My best laid plans had taken everything I'd ever known
Everything I understood had turned out to be untrue
I had to turn my world around and look for something new

CHORUS
When it comes down to it I don't know anything at all
When it comes down to it there's a better way
When it comes down to it I got a lot to learn
About living life for today

I always saw the other guy
Controlled by fear and scared to try
Creating truths so full of pain
I look inside and see that I'm the same

Now I realize that was just as blind
About my thoughts of people, places and things in my mind
I try not to think about where and what I've been
When I do to takes to the place where it all began

CHORUS
CHORUS
