Every one's around me And my world is quickly fading
I'm on front stage But in the background As the music starts to clash I don't understand I can't figure out why The melodies collide In such an ugly way
Despite each chord or note I try It all just seems wrong
So I looked out to the empty seats There couldn't have been but ten people They didn't seem to notice That my life was clashing into my existence and they were like mindless puppets, just singing along
The piano holds its key And it's just me Its just me who ruined the melody It's so simple to me This should come so easily Although I tried and tried to make things right, I couldn't figure out what's wrong inside of me I've become my worst enemy
And when they asked me to sing I was off in my own world Everyone could hear the sound Of a broken guitar So that's when I stopped playing and let my voice take control Their eyes were filled with wonder As they touched a piece of my soul
It's so curious to me Did I let them down? It should have been obvious to me But I just couldn't figure it out So am I wrong? Am I wrong? Am I just asking to fall?
What comes easiest to me Can feel like something like a dream
All that I've worked towards To all that I aimed for It all means nothing in the end
Did I lose focus? Or did I stumble? It means nothing in the end at all to me
My passion My worry My reason to give Who I am upon a shining billboard It's So easy for them to see My reason My talent To see me fall after coming so far I've made it so far But it's only just a dream
