4am, and my head's against the wall
Countless times I've let myself feel this small
These words won't come out,
But tomorrow I'll make sure they do,
Make sure I don't half my truths
Cause you know what? You're right,
I'm a coward, I'm wrong
I only know how to be brave through a song
Some late nights, it seems, like I can't even speak
At least I'm changing, I know it's right for me
This whole time, I've felt like a passerby
I counted road lines, I waited for this place to die
streetlights led me nowhere free,
I had to give, we have to live
I learned the hard way,
and I'm still learning every day
Cause you know what? I'm right.
It's been real, it's been long
And now I'm moving on, though I've still got my songs
Some late nights, I feel, like I finally know what's real
And that feeling is one thing that you could never steal
Driving home, I found new beginings in this place,
We're told, we're born we work we get old
Enough of that s***, I wasted time
But you're not wasting mine, no no
Yeah I remember sitting on your lawn
Some old day gone, sputing dreams until the sun came up
I love those dreams just like you
But I wanna like myself right now too
Countless times I've let myself feel this small
These words won't come out,
But tomorrow I'll make sure they do,
Make sure I don't half my truths
Cause you know what? You're right,
I'm a coward, I'm wrong
I only know how to be brave through a song
Some late nights, it seems, like I can't even speak
At least I'm changing, I know it's right for me
This whole time, I've felt like a passerby
I counted road lines, I waited for this place to die
streetlights led me nowhere free,
I had to give, we have to live
I learned the hard way,
and I'm still learning every day
Cause you know what? I'm right.
It's been real, it's been long
And now I'm moving on, though I've still got my songs
