You have to be willing to sacrifice who you are for what you can become.


I tell myself to just get through each day,
That’ll be good enough.
I tell myself that to instigate who I really am,
Good enough isn’t really good enough for me.

Here I am, it’s midnight
And I made it through the day.
Welcome to my late night fears.

I ponder on the day,
All the words I didn’t say,
All the wrongs I didn’t make a right,
All the smiles and hugs I didn’t share.
These are my demons, they haunt me every night.

Here I am, it’s midnight
And I made it through the day.
Welcome to my late night fears.

I ponder on my life,
All the empty places in my heart where people swore they’d be,
All these emotional issues I still haven’t conquered,
All these late night fears…

They say that you have to face your fears to overcome them,
Well that’s exactly where things went wrong for me
I faced a fear I didn’t have,
Creating one that doesn’t go away.
My biggest fear is to lose the ones I love,
This is my late night fear.

Here I am, it’s midnight
And I made it through the day.
Welcome to my late night fears.
