You're wearing your fear on your face like warpaint
You don't really want to be here do you
But nobody would inform you of the fate
Of pushing yourself past the boundaries
So here we are play the notes sing the songs we create
Nobody is gonna do this for you
You're not really content just living your life
Are you ever gonna break out of that shell
Chorus:
A thought doesn't matter unless you write a song
I've a hundred of them floating around but they all just come out wrong
Never looked at a thesaurus or tried hyperbole
A rattled bird in a cage is all that you see when you look at me
not sure if I can express sit down and take a breath
you write a song and decide where the story begins and ends
Been holding out for something else
A moment that will never come
Fear of myself
Fear of the thought that I have nothing left to give
I've given up on giving up
I've thrown my hat into the ring
It's not a challenge if you're not afraid of failing.
