I’ll wear my heart on my sleeves so when I sleep I can feel the weight of my soul but I don’t hear a beat I hear a scream, it says Let me spread my wings, set me free Don’t hold me down, just let me seek My brightest thoughts, my darkest hours I didn’t live if I died a coward, but I’m buried alive My flame will burn through my coffin and only get brighter Till Im tired of this rock and go among the other lights I’m a star you should look up at

Dead Optimist
I’ll wear my heart on my sleeves so when I sleep I can feel the weight of my soul but I don’t hear a beat I hear a scream, it says Let me spread my wings, set me free Don’t hold me down, just let me seek My brightest thoughts, my darkest hours I didn’t live if I died a coward, but I’m buried alive My flame will burn through my coffin and only get brighter Till Im tired of this rock and go among the other lights I’m a star you should look up at
