things have changed but you’ve stayed the same.

ill stare at you forever everytime you say my name.

words mean nothing. actions define you.

life is a movie. i want to rewind you.

you said that you would die for me

but i see that you can’t even cry for me.

you should have gotten the point the last time we talked.

my heart still hasn’t recovered the last time it stopped.

Thankful for today cause tomorrow I could fade

Peaceful into the ether, cut by the reapers blade

Shadows on cave walls I cry out for brighter shades

My soul is a pit; an ache, torrential rain; a wave

I wake and bake through the day to surf out all my pain

I could take and take still make nothing of it all

I would look before I leap but than I’d never take that fall

Heart on my sleeve because it leads me through the fog

Faith another page one flip could change it all

I was young taking the wind to my wings

Without a thought of landing or scars I would take

I was bold in my ambitions man I had some dreams

But life has made a fool of me

The blood in my veins and breath in my lungs

Is all it cost to get back up

Told by now I’d probably never make it out

With these restless feet; my prideful doubt

Rebel souls like me roll till the wheels fall off than bounce

Pound for pound I’m a wild lion to a mouse

Courage snuck away with my demons set fire to my house

Now here I am out in the rain praying storms drown it out

Voices that use to whisper tell me I should fear, now shout

‘Stay down, don’t chase dreams right now’

I was young taking the wind to my wings

Without a thought of landing or scars I would take

I was bold in my ambitions man I had some dreams

But life has made a fool of me

The blood in my veins and breath in my lungs

Is all it cost to get back up

Not as lost as I seem, I follow maps

Drawn in scars and tattooed ink

I toss a coin, say a prayer and drink

Here’s to the ones a lot like me

Don’t fit the system won’t be the key

Who just can’t help but chase a dream

I was young taking the wind to my wings

Without a thought of landing or scars I would take

I was bold in my ambitions man I had some dreams

But life has made a fool of me

The blood in my veins and breath in my lungs

Is all it cost to get back up
