Trying to be the best person that I can be Is the only quality I have to some degree To some degree Ones with narrow minds and hollow hearts Shoot for gold and look up to the stars What hope do I have When my wish is growing cold So I'm heading home But It's true everyone you know Contribute to who you are If it wasn't for them, you wouldn't be who you are today I can never stop feeling like a bad person How can anyone truly get along with themselves? Seeing the good in everyone, it's easier said than done People you hold up high, people who wave goodbye Ones you admire are labelled as liars When purity is further away from even having a soul Trying to be the best person that I can be Is the only quality I have to some degree To some degree Ones with narrow minds and hollow hearts Shoot for gold and look up to the stars What hope do I have When my wish is growing cold So I'm heading home But It's true everyone you know Contribute to who you are If it wasn't for them, you wouldn't be who you are I wouldn't be who I am When everything and all you have leaves you behind Where will you be When all your scars align? With patience and composure I 've overcome the troubles standing in my way Letting go's coming to a closure Still the blues in my soul will stay the same Let's find some promise to cast our fear away Are you happy with the life you live? Are you content? How do you survive? Please tell me brother 'cos I need to know This is all I have to hold onto
