Ambition Lyrics
lately I've been measuring mistakes that I've been making
it's classic overreach and stretching way beyond my station
whatever I've been drinking lends a small amount of solace
that's inversely proportional to how badly I want it
so long, ambition
it's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
an odd position
but I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before
every single word from you's uncomfortably appealing
preservation's telling me to forget what I'm hearing
part of me is screaming, 'you should just come out and ask her'
as if there were a chance in hell that'd get me what I'm after
so long, ambition
it's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
an odd position
but I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before
my imagination is unnervingly inclined to working overtime
this kind of aggravation just seems perfectly designed to keep me up at night
it keeps me up at night
it keeps me up at night
alright
so long, ambition
it's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
an odd position
but I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before
it's classic overreach and stretching way beyond my station
whatever I've been drinking lends a small amount of solace
that's inversely proportional to how badly I want it
it's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
an odd position
but I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before
preservation's telling me to forget what I'm hearing
part of me is screaming, 'you should just come out and ask her'
as if there were a chance in hell that'd get me what I'm after
it's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
an odd position
but I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before
this kind of aggravation just seems perfectly designed to keep me up at night
it keeps me up at night
it keeps me up at night
alright
it's not a competition
I can't win anymore
I can't win anymore
an odd position
but I got the suspicion
I have been here before
I have been here before

I think it's: "For my imagination is unnervingly inclined to working over time This kind of aggravation just seems perfectly designed to keep me up at night"
I think these are the correct lyrics:
Lately i've been measuring mistakes that i've been making It's classic over-reaching, stretching way beyond my station Whatever i've been drinking lends a small amount of solace That's inversely proportional to how badly I want it
So long ambition It's not a competition I can't win anymore I can't win anymore An odd position That I have the suspicion I have been here before I have been here before
Every single word from you's uncomfortably appealing And reservations telling me to forget what i am hearing Part of me is screaming, you should just come out and ask her As if there were a chance in hell to get me what I'm after
So long ambition It's not a competition I can't win anymore I can't win anymore An odd position That I have the suspicion I have been here before I have been here before
For my imagination is unnerving me in clouds all working over time This kind of aggrevation just seems perfectly designed to keep me up at night It keeps me up at night It keeps me up at night Alright
So long ambition It's not a competition I can't win anymore I can't win anymore An odd position That I have the suspicion I have been here before I have been here before I have been here before I have been here before
