lyrics

I watched the poster boy image of myself
Drown my heart and soul in an empty, lifeless shell
I’m shards of broken glass and dreams of who I’d be
But a piecemeal man to show my family

“So throw your dreams away and make yourself a plan”
That’s what they said, but I don’t think I can
I’d push this life aside to feel alright, but I’d never live to see
Myself become everything I never want to be

But I’ll write poetry
And be the man I know I need to be
I’ll hold my breath and close my eyes
With a leap of faith I know that I’ll survive

Because no matter where they’ll be
You’ll always know where to find me

But I’ll write poetry
And be the man I know I need to be
I’ll hold my breath and close my eyes
With a leap of faith I know that I’ll survive
