 Struggling with Mountain? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

If I can't be a brave boy
Jumping off the head of a mountain
Then I wonder why the thought of it
Brings me to the edge of my bed
If I can't tell the difference
From a waterfall and a fountain
Was it the way you looked at me
And in a moment I said
That I could sit here for hours
Just a'waiting on your arrival
I could sit here for days
Just hoping you'd come out and play
I could die in a minute
And the once chance for survival
Would be the sound of your beautiful name

I see a different breed of sunshine now and again
Kinda lovin' how it's peeking through the mountains and shit
I'm never one for scenery so pardon if it's basic
It's hard to cop to lovin' you in any such occasion
And it's not 'cause I'm embarrassed or never cherish it
You the type of girl I wanna go to Paris with
I don't know what it was that turned the corner so abruptly
Now I'm writin' songs about you as a lover that could touch me
I'm tellin' friends that you love me behind the back of him
Guess I'm out of pocket, tryin' to will it into happenin'
Crafting all these messages and pledges of a love
That I'm stealin' from a movie, but I'm tweakin' just enough
To make it sound like I did it
But I never would've sent it
I'll just keep it in my drafts to read about when I'm missin' it
I guess that they believed that I was doin' somethin' with ya
So the word, it traveled 'round until your mans was in the picture
I didn't mean any harm or any malice
But I'll lie about it anyway to contradict the practice
I've gotten good at manipulation and bail outs
F*ck around enough until we good enough to sail out

If I can't be a brave boy
Jumping off the head of a mountain
Then I wonder why the thought of it
Brings me to the edge of my bed
If I can't tell the difference
From a waterfall and a fountain
Was it the way you looked at me
And in a moment I said
That I could sit here for hours
Just waiting on your arrival
I could sit here for days
Just hoping you'd come out and play
I could die in a minute
And the once chance for survival
Is the sound of your beautiful name

I'd feel bad if I was wrong or misinformed
But I see the way he looks at you, I'm bettin' that he's torn
He can do a fraction of the love that I offer
Look at all these poems and these songs that I authored
No matter that I stole 'em from my favorite band
Or I change 'em up enough to trick myself in the scam
Maybe if you read 'em, you can see that I'm perfect
And then you wouldn't be cuttin' yourself or nothin' disturbin'
And sorry 'bout the message, it's an accident, I promise
I kept it in my notes for that very reason, I'm honest
Except for all the times I said we kissed in the gym
Or that time I told someone we had a threesome with friends
Love is hard to understand, it needs a chance to evolve
It's a problem we're too small and unadvancing to solve
I'll be damned if he's the man that you can take to the ball
You remember at the dance when he was too damn small
You wasn't lookin' too enthralled when he was shootin' for buckets
But then a slow song came and I guess you said f*ck it
And it was Aerosmith
That's the band we bonded over
I can't believe you did this to me, man
I came here sober
I ain't listenin' again, that voice is dead to me now
If I ever see the dress you wore, I'm headin' on out
I kinda wish that you were better than this
We could've done the shit I'm tellin' all my friends that we been

If I can't be a brave boy
Jumping off the head of a mountain
Then I wonder why the thought of it
Brings me to the edge of my bed
If I can't tell the difference
From a waterfall and a fountain
Was it the way you looked at me
And in a moment I said
That I could sit here for hours
Just waiting on your arrival
I could sit here for days
Just hoping you'd come out and play
I could die in a minute
And the once chance for survival
Is the sound of your beautiful name
