Self-Reliant

You’re weak So why don’t you do something about it? But it’s just the way I speak Yet these words don’t really seem to surround it Once I was made up as the best in my own mind Ignorance everytime I guess I’m just afraid I may not like what I find About myself, such a mystery Actions speak louder than words So I’m told Don’t mean I’m finally bold I guess I just needed a friend But I have felt the end Just so I could restart again Somebody to revive the old voice inside my head And now the colors have returned ‘Cause once upon a time I wished to be self-reliant And now the years keep flying passed Don’t give me the run-around All we have is here and now But I just wanna calm the f*ck down I am a crazy, nervous wreck You’ll sink lower the more you climb But why not give it a try? There are worse things to fear than heights And I’m just a lost cause Or I guess that’s what I’d be If everybody I need would turn their backs on me ‘Cause every now and then I get a little self-reliant And now the years keep flying passed Don’t give me the run-around All we have is here and now But I just wanna calm the f*ck down I am a crazy, nervous wreck And it’s a world that I’ve been never shown Weakness that I’ve never known It seems the sky’s the limit But it’s not my own I will get there now I know That I am not my enemy Why try when I’m stuck on the outside? It’s my own mind that receives the hate It’s fine to feel emotional anyway Sunrise overtakes the moonlight It’s to remind that you’re on your own side It’s fine to feel emotional anyway Don’t give me the run-around All we have is here and now But I just wanna calm the f*ck down I am a crazy, nervous wreck And it’s a world that I’ve been never shown Weakness that I’ve never known It seems the sky’s the limit But it’s not my own I will get there now I know That I am not my enemy
