lyrics

We face the world half-grown
Take up the wrong dream in our hands
None of our moods, traits or talents match that plan

Step beyond step
Beyond stumbles beyond falls
We progress then we stall
And we learn some days

Scar beyond scar
Beyond failure, beyond all
We ascend then we crawl
As we drift away

Dream the unattainable
Dream the unattainable

(Someday…)
Our voices can’t reach all the notes for us
Too often, our crushes don’t notice us
Our poetic gifts are superfluous
Lost souls, who holds a hope for us?

Our dreams don’t fit our damages
Our hearts don’t match their packages
Broken dancing, still advancing
Our truth is where the balance is
