- Poetry > Song LyricsI’ve spent my whole life listening and it’s my turn to speak ‘Cause every word that’s shot at me makes me run down and weak And we’re not who you think we are, we want to get along But you can’t seem to let it go, does it scare you to be wrong? Listen, you don’t need to raise you...
- Poetry > Song LyricsJesse told me, if you color in the lines Then you only color lies And that’s no fun Jesse told me to just draw it alone Then I know that it’s my own But Jesse’s gone Jesse told me, if you plant the corn in rows Then you know how it’ll grow And that’s no fun Jesse held me as I sc...

- Poetry > Song LyricsI don’t know who to follow Too scared to fly, I’ve got fears I’ve got years’ Worth of tears in my eyes Can’t find the ground So I look to the sky But I know It’s okay If I say I don’t know why CHORUS: But I hope you won’t drop me ‘Cause I’ve lost this game before ...

- Poetry > Song LyricsYou wake from another bad dream, And the world is not as it seems. And you try To put it from your mind To leave it all behind. Oh, you try.

- Poetry > Song LyricsWhen it starts to fall apart at the seams You go chasing after long lost dreams Trying be what you weren’t meant to be Giving hope to what you know you can’t believe And I know you feel like it’s not right Like you’ve thrown away all you could be That every true talent God gave you ...

- Poetry > Song LyricsYou ask me where I go, When I don’t know where to run. You ask me where I hide, When I can’t see the sun.
