I collapse from working harder than...
The average work-aholic
I intend on reaching father than...
Infinity
To get exactly what I fight so hard and labor for
And crack the surface of what I intend to be
Not for you
You're too hard to please

(Chorus:)
How do I meet your impossible needs?
How can I reach with you pulling on me?
With your impossible needs
Impossible needs
How can I reach with you pulling on me?

I snap but still hang on
By the thread that you throw me
One hand to just hang on
And the other to catch me
One too many ticks
Past the second that you were so happy
I can't go back around again
Not for you
You're too hard to please 

(Repeat Chorus)

In a round-about way, I'm better than this
But you keep me from taking a chance
On what I believe I am
And what you think makes me a man

(Repeat Chorus)
