lyrics

I’ve been trying to plaster on this smile 
for the last few weeks.

If you’d leave me be, I’d find away to bolt on all the teeth.


You can color me in with shades of grey 
but if you color outside the lines
 you don’t have to erase it all away. 



I’m tired of standing still 
when we have an expanding 
outstanding skill

it’s a demand, commanding thrill.


But I feel like I’ve lost the will.


Watching others take the lead,

as I’m stopped with no acceleration or top speed.

We’ve tried for so long to reach for the stars

and with attempt they’d leave my hands burned up and scarred 


and I can feel the seasons under my skin

the reason why I am wearing thin

cause from the outside looking in
 you can probably see a grin
etched right above the chin


I can never tell if the sun
is smiling or weeping 
or if and why he’d be sleeping.

Tell me why it melts the snow?

and I’ve felt his glow

it’s not warm enough to keep my 
hands and nose from feeling numb


is this really all there is,
from the sum of 
who I am,
to who I will become?



and for far too long I ran away from fate.

cutting corners out of every book

so all you can see is a broken spine 

and a tattered cover 

battered and bruised up and stained

But don’t throw it away. Don’t toss me aside

cause no matter how much you crumble the page

these words will always stay the same
