lyrics

It's a lie
This construct we've built standing on our toes
Lord only knows how hard I try
But only one thing keeps me on my knees
How I aim to please

If only one thing keeps me drifting far off course
Belief in higher power is for most a driving force
One thing I've always focused on is bettering myself
But who am I to turn to if it just doesn't help?

The only thing I can control, how I handle my days
But does it matter in the end if my deeds will be erased?
If my own legacy is the songs I leave behind
I write these lines for you with this in mind

There's that fear again
Letting my emotions decide me
That's now who I want to be
There's that fear again
Devotion to devotion, this ride's free
I mean each word sincerely

If I left my doubts decide the path my life will take
Become a prisoner to that nagging voice I just can't shake
Absorbing words of wisdom works when you're weary, well, and wise
What do you do if wisdom is the thinnest of disguise?

The acceptance that makes sense is really dropping all pretense
I'm not put together enough to make any difference
No one understands me, especially when I'm alone
My girl still waits for me to come back home

The only things I've got left are the lives I left back there
My songs, my inner monologue are the stories I will share
No one ever told me to what do when I'm all spent
I guess I'll change my ways and be a little different
