So put me in my place
Show me all the things I waste
And tell me everything I could have been
According to your thinking
A wasted a shell with some potential
A fractured mind caught too deep into
Everything

And the road's still paved with this
The remains of people
Who tried their best
And still didn't fit
Cause however bright you burn
Some light gets lost in the glow
Like the stars faded black
Lost from the streetlight below

Only the time will tell
If all that's on the line will
Fall into place as well
As it has in my mind but
I've got to face my fears
I'm gonna take these years
And turn them into something real
Turn them into something

I feel like everyone my age
Is twice as far into their lives
With better jobs and more insights
A better road, less to rewrite
And the road's still paved with this
The remains of people
Who tried their best
And still didn't fit

Only the time will tell
If all that's on the line will
Fall into place as well
As it has in my mind but
I've got to face my fears
I'm gonna take these years
And turn them into something real
Turn them into something

I feel like everyone my age
Is twice as far into their lives
With better jobs and more insights
A better road, less to rewrite

I feel like everyone my age

I've got to face my fears
I'm gonna take these years
