How do you know where you're going
|
When you don't know where you've been
|
You hide the shame that you're not showing
|
And you won't let anyone in
|
A crowded street can be a quiet place
|
When you're walking alone
|
And now you think that you're the only
|
One who doesn't
|
|
Have to try
|
And you won't have to fail
|
If you're afraid to fly
|
Then i guess you never will
|
You hide behind your walls
|
Of maybe nevers
|
Forgetting that there's something more
|
Than just knowing better
|
Your mistakes do not define you now
|
They tell you who you're not
|
You've got to live this life you're given
|
Like it's the only one you've got
|
|
Memories have left you broken
|
And the scars have never healed
|
The emptiness in you is growing
|
But so little left to feel
|
You're scared to look back on the days before
|
You're too tired to move on
|
And now you think that you're the only one who doesn't
|
|
Have to try
|
And you won't have to fail
|
If you're afraid to fly
|
Then i guess you never will
|
You hide behind your walls
|
Of maybe nevers
|
Forgetting that there's something more
|
Than just knowing better
|
Your mistakes do not define you now
|
They tell you who you're not
|
You've got to live this life you're given
|
Like it's the only one you've got
|
|
What would it take
|
To get you to say that i'll try
|
And what would you say if
|
This was the last day of your life
|
|
You hide behind your walls
|
Of maybe nevers
|
Forgetting that there's something more
|
Than just knowing better
|
Your mistakes do not define you now
|
They tell you who you're not
|
You've got to live this life you're given
|
Like it's the only one you've got
|
|
You hide behind your walls
|
Of maybe nevers
|
Forgetting that there's something more
|
Than just knowing better
|
Your mistakes do not define you now
|
They tell you who you're not
|
You've got to live this life you're given
|
Like it's the only one you've got
