I always knew, I just didn't want to say If it's a dream that I'm trying to keep alive I wish I could awake I wish I didn't feel it But it's give and take All of the 'could have been' good things That time took away Don't be so hard on yourself What would it mean, if I put it all aside Never settle for nothing 'cause something's Just too hard to find I threw out all the jealousy, it was heavy anyway If I can't have always, I don't want it to stay You can change your voice, change your style Be who you want to be for a little while But don't be too hard on yourself Here I go leaving Nearsighted dreaming I've had a hard time finding who I'm supposed to be Wasting time looking for a rhyme or a reason to believe Oh, I need to take a moment Reassess and realign, it all comes at a price One that I won't pay I always knew, I just didn't want to say
