Take the time
To just admit you're failing
But then remind yourself
To continue procrastinating
So I'll conjure my regrets
Begging optimism not to leave
So I can tell myself I'll make it
Just so I can let myself back down again
So does your happiness rely on someone else's misery?
And does your hopelessness persist?
Block out the doubt
As I tell myself
"It's only one day away"
False hope surrounds
As I tell myself
"I guess you'll just have to wait"
Take the time
To notice how I'm feeling
Oblivious and blind
Can you just hear me out? I said I tried
Tried to tell you what you meant to me, but false hope has got the best of me
And I've reached the breaking point, nothing left to do but to sigh and leave
But you should know I'm leaving emptily, cos if I don't you'll be the death of me
Now I return to writing elegies, for my dreams and my dying destiny
So does your loneliness rely on all the things that you regret?
And has your dying love finally met death?
Block out the doubt
As I tell myself
"It's only one day away"
False hope surrounds
As I tell myself
"I guess you'll just have to wait"
So now my future rests, on the ice I've spent so many years breaking
And I am lost in my betrayal to myself
So now my future rests on the broken shoulders that optimism brings
And I am lost in my betrayal, to myself
Block out the doubt
As I tell myself
"It's only one day away"
The hope's ripped me apart
Now I'll share my scars
Time has come, I'm not waiting
Procrastination's taking over me, and I've let this hope consume me
And I've learnt enough to know, that these melodies don't play themselves
So I'm picking up the pen at last, I'm building up the strength to stand
Using words as a weapon against the armies of doubt that can't be taken out by hand
Cos it's all in the head and mind, I think I better head out and tell those armies to mind
Their own business, listen, you really do exist, but your time isn't infinite so make the most of it
You almost made me accept the negative, I thought I made it clear that my goal's imperative
I'm sensitive but I'm sensing it, the compass in my head is set to this, oh
I know you told me never to sing again, and you warned me that I just accept
That I can't do everything, I guess a dream's a dream and it'll never be more that
But I'm still trying with all the strength I have, you can bet it's hard but you can bet that I'll be back
Now I hope you can finally understand why this dream, was so important to catch
