Ambition Lyrics - Barbara - We Are Scientists

Lately I've been measuring mistakes that I've been making 

It's classic overreaching stretching way beyond my station 

Wherever 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

Watch Janelle Monáe's Sci-Fi film 'Dirty Computer' 

Every single word from you is uncomfortably appealing 

And reservations 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 got 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 

For my imagination is unnerving me of working over time 

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 

I have been here before 

I have been here before
