It's a modest opinion that becomes the epitome of truth |
|
As it builds up egos in your mind |
|
They feast on your rejection, your frivolous observation |
|
Is you must change to survive |
|
Now your stuck inside the play that society will write |
|
Even the bright stars die, yes they all die |
|
That's the reason why you missed, why you slipped |
|
Their decisions leave you dried out |
|
That's the treason, that's the reason why you missed, why you slipped |
|
Their decisions leave you dried out |
|
It's the weight of acceptance, they fail to mention |
|
That'll bear down and crush you in time |
|
When they pull on your strings to make you stand |
|
Make you walk like a man, how will you survive |
|
When you've lost all your beliefs |
|
When faith's hanging on by the skin of your teeth |
|
You'll find that perfection is a lie, it is a lie |
|
When you realize there's no where you can run |
|
Living up to expectations isn't fun |
|
You can try to justify it, but it's wrong |
|
And we all can get in line and follow along |
