I thought the time was passed when I could
Find beauty in a birds
I set the stage and the scenery
Rehearsing every word
Yeah but when I tried to make it more
Well it was always less
And it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
And pleasing somebody else
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
All right

With my confidence on fire
I set to fixin' up my roles
My separation of desires
Just left me deeper down in the hole
Yeah when I tried to make it more
Well it was always less
And it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
And pleasing somebody else
Yeah and when I tried to make it more
Well it was always less
It's a thin line between pleasing yourself
And pleasing somebody else

Now I'm tryin to get back
To what I know that I should be
Hoping to God that I was just
A temporary absentee
Yeah when I tried to make it more
Well it was always less
It's a thin line between pleasing yourself
And pleasing somebody else
Yeah when I tried to make it more
Well it was always less
And it's a thin line between pleasing yourself
And pleasing somebody else
Somebody else
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
All right
