Runnin out of self-control
Gettin close to an overload
Up against a no win situation
Shoulder to shoulder, push and shove
Im hangin up my boxin gloves
Im ready for a long vacation
[About someone who can't controll himelf... possibly taking on so many people's problems and such that he can't stop. He's getting close to an overload of problems and no matter what he does he can't win. He's tired of fighting and really wants to get away from everything]
Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
Youre walkin a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself
[be good to yourself, and when you feel like you're above the rest, people will get you involved and you'll be caught in the cross fire. You need to remember to be good to yourself]
When you cant give no more
They want it all but you gotta say no
Im turnin off the noise that makes me crazy
Lookin back with no regrets
To forgive is to forget
I want a little piece of mind to turn to
[Pretty much everyone wants you to help them with their problems but you really can't help them anymore because you're so messed up. All these people wanting help is making him crazy. He wants a piece of mind]
Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
Oh be good to yourself
Youre walkin a high wire, caught in a cross fire
Oh be good to yourself
Be good to yourself when, nobody else will
