Troubled youth

Got the blues

Take a walk in those shoes

See how they fit for a while

I can bend

It's all pretend

It's just fake until you mean it

And one day you'll mean it for real.

It's to new beginnings

Starting over

When you hope all's forgiven

It's best not to ask for a while

I believe some can see how to strike when it's red hot

And crumble the castle walls.

If I bite the hook would you tell me I'm wrong?

Speak like a man who believes he's got no destiny

He's content

Troubles so great that you shouldn't have gone through

With a clarity I've never seen

I will build you up until you're big enough

To take me home.

I told you we'd see it through

But you don't believe

And that's the part that kills me

(And that's the part)

Promise me, promise me you will.

If I bite the hook would you tell me I'm wrong?

Speak like a man who believes he's got no destiny

He's content

Troubles so great that you shouldn't have gone through

With a clarity I've never seen

I will build you up until you're big enough

To pick me up.
