You're uncertain and you’re unwell
That don’t mean that I am going to hell
Your rags to riches but your heart can’t tell
That’s how the story goes though
You're like a Phoenix rising from the ashes
But all you care about is death and taxes
And being famous just takes too much practice
I wish it want so
I spent my '20s in the lights of the disco
Trying to prove that I could be your hero
And there were times when It felt I was winning but looking back it only lasted a minute
I’d watch my friends take over the radio
All it did was drill a hole in my ego
I forgot what goodness was outside window
I thought that greatness was around
But it wasn’t close.
I don’t need silver linings
I don’t need so much more
I just need room to be wrong some times
That’s all I’m hoping for
I feel like we could find it
If we knocked on heavens door
We’d say God I’m only human
He’s say that’s what I’m here for
I spent my teens making out in the stairwell
Inside a church that went long cause the spirit fell
I was really trying to mean something to someone
But at the time I just thought that it was fun
