i never really thought i could be anyone
i just needed to get by and have some fun
i never really dreamed of much of anything
i always seem to make my friends carry me
but i dont want to have to be a burden to them
i need to learn to be independent

raindrops falling on the ground
i don't hear a single sound
i can't seem to move today
i can't help it, I could help it
time is slipping through my hands
when will I get to my plans
I'll just get through things today
maybe later, someday later
she said here you go again
you should try now and then
I said here I go again
say it's the way it's always been

I never thought I'd leave you
I never thought you'd like me
you are not the same
we are not the same
I cant believe it, baby
I hardly know you, baby
things are not the same
we are not the same
but i still care
what we shared
it's so easy to lose friends
so hard to make new ones
people stray away
dont see them day to day
daydream what you are doin'
'bout life before the routine
do you do the same?
still think of me and dream?
I still care
what we shared
maybe I've changed
and you've stayed the same

i can't remember the last time
i woke up stretched and felt fine
weight below my eyes
drag myself and try
unsure of where im goin'
or what I should be doin'
keeps me up at night
tell myself its alright
but I
start to feel the stress
tightness in the chest
oh I
can't get myself to focus
cause im so caught up in what I fear
i wake up every night past ten
cant shake the feeling that this'll never end
you say you're leaving and your done with me
i gasp for breath but i guess it was a dream
as i face my fears hopefully
this stress will start to dissipate
if i make my goals realistically
maybe it will alleviate
i wake up every night past ten
cant shake the feeling that this'll never end
you say you're leaving and your done with me
i gasp for breath but i guess it was a dream
tell myself its alright
but I
start to feel the stress
tightness in the chest
oh I
can't get myself to focus
cause im so caught up in what I fear
as i face my fears hopefully
this stress will start to dissipate
if i make my goals realistically
maybe it will alleviate

Lie to Me

I never had to second guess
the way I felt when I first met you
I knew you had the perfect smile
and motivated me to be more
but when you weren't around a wave
of doubt would come, and swallow me
all the fears I hid behind
would come right back and start their crippling
I'm nothing that you haven't heard before, heard before
but I still feel and need to be adored be adored
I never could create something
without being afraid of how you feel
I've always had such envy
of all the confidence you've always held
but I know I've got to try
to hold onto that faith you put in me
I hope the fears I hide behind
don't come right back and start to swallow me
I'm nothing that you haven't heard before, heard before
but I still feel and need to be adored be adored
so lie to me and tell me that I'm fresh and that I'm cool
I second guess it all, feel like a fool, feel like a fool
so lie to me and tell me that I'm fresh and that I'm cool
say that you love me
say that you love me

I hope I'll be
I hope I will be brave as my friends
brave as all my friends
if I don't go
if I don't go maybe she will leave
I'll be left empty
if i dont try
if i dont try to face my fears
cause my whole life
cause my whole life I have dodged myself
ignore what causes stress
i am hopefull
ill be able to
treat it like anyone
else learned to
i gotta be hopefull
ill be able to
treat it like everyone
else seems to able to
cause my whole life
cause my whole life i have dodged myself
ignore what causes stress
if i dont try
if i dont try to face my fears
i will be ashamed
i am hopefull
ill be able to
treat it like anyone
else learned to
i gotta be hopefull
ill be able to
treat it like everyone else
seemed to able to
cause my whole life
cause my whole life i have dodged myself
if i dont try
if i dont try to face my fears
i will be ashamed

I dreamt of this over and over
and it's still so vivid to me
but now that it's over it's over
I still have to cross the sea

I can't believe
I finally
swallowed my fear
at least for once
no longer trapped
I'll fly away
I'll see the world
and learn some things
what a dumb cause
of all this stress
I'm so relieved
and embarrassed
no longer trapped
I'll fly away
I'll be with her
I'll be ok
but I know I'll still be afraid
but I know it'll all be ok
