lyrics

So, it looks like I'm gonna die
And there's nothing I can do
I don't get to stay alive
Looks like I've gotta follow suit
Get's me thinking
Gotta find me
A rooftop with a bird's eye view
So that I can sort out
What I'm gonna do

I'm getting sick of playing it safe
And I think I'm about to crack
But, if I run outta the gate
Baby, there's no coming back
You ever feel like
You were born to
Do just on particular thing
Well, that's me and I've been
Waiting in the wings

It's only a matter of the time it takes
Before I break
Nobody on earth can keep his soul alive
From nine to five
So if you could be there when
The cards come down
And I look like a clown
Then it's alright

What makes a guy feel so afraid
Is it the monster under the bed
Is it just the way he was made
Or just a poison in his head
I love the stories
Where the hero
Is just brave 'cause it's what he should do
I bet I could be that
Brave if I wanted to

I sit here and watch the clock devour days
Potential fades
I've got a deposit of regretted stuff
That's building up
But, soon it'll overflow
And I'll be here
To tidy all the fear
Then it's alright

So, it looks like I'm gonna die
And there's nothing I can do
I don't get to stay alive
Looks like I've gotta follow suit
It's not an issue
Get me a tissue
'Cause I wine like a little kid
But I can let this become
The thing I never did
