I couldn't comprehend the words you spoke Because my mind was distracting me with words of hope And I used to believe it'd be okay But to this day who knows Because I've taught myself to be just fine To travel all paths, not the straight line I've been told what I'm expected to do But lately I wonder if that's the difference between me and you Because you follow what they say you listen then do and respond "okay" Yet I put up a fight and make my own rules Hoping the road will build itself with no tools And I may be lost for now, But I think I'm finding myself And to you that may mean something else Which is what I hope
