I let my hopes get high
Distracted and wild
Got burned, I thought I'd learned to hide a smile
Stick by my tried and true, I'm an ignorant fool
Can't hate what I don't try, it's been a while
Winning or losing, I'm still broken, frail
Picking and choosing all the ways I still fail
I'll be too tired soon to feel anything new
'Til then I'll scream out all I've been through
I fear the end, lead on by a false hope
I can see the rest of my low tide's shallows
Standing at the edge of all the things I'm scared to feel
But when I fall from here, I'll face my fears
What if I sang about what I wanted to hear?
My dreams are passing by the hardest times
I made them my strength
I can't pretend that I could do it all again
When will it end?
Who do I have to be to fall painlessly?
