If I tried, would you still call me son?
If I tried, would you call me at all?
If I say that I’ll go regardless of what you want me to do.
If I say that I’ll go regardless I’m better off without,
I’m better off without you.

If I change my mind it won’t be soon enough for you,
But I’m not you,
I’m not you,
I’m not you.

I’ll try to compromise for you to see
That there’s so many other things for me to find out.
Run myself to the ground.
Would you please forgive me if I found my way back home?

Everything I see,
Everything I do,
Everywhere I’ve been,
These mean nothing to you?
