I like to look at you from a distance I like when you scream in my face Afraid to say the right words in right order So it makes sense to a person with such grace What if my dreams don't become reality Is my life just a big mistake Will I be happy for the times I had Would I reconsider recalculate I wanna be heard, but leave no trace I wanna be seen, but take no space I wanna be I wanna be Leave no trace I wanna be I wanna be Take no space The older I get, the younger I feel The younger I feel, the older I seem The more I feel, my age seems real Life to pretend, I'm as young as I feel I wanna be heard, but leave no trace I wanna be seen, won't take no space I wanna be I wanna be Leave no trace I wanna be I wanna be Take no space Take no space Take no space I wanna be heard, but leave no trace I wanna be seen, won't take no space

So long ago, i don't remember when That's when they say i lost my only friend Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease As i listened through the cemetery trees I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn The long broken arm of human law Now it always seemed such a waste She always had a pretty face So i wondered how she hung around this place Hey, come on try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me & cinderella We put it all together we can drive it home With one headlight She said it's cold It feels like independence day And i can't break away from this parade But there's got to be an opening Somewhere here in front of me Through this maze of ugliness and greed And i seen the sign up ahead At the county line bridge Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead We'll run until she's out of breath She ran until there's nothin' left She hit the end it's just her window ledge Hey, come on try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me & cinderella We put it all together we can drive it home With one headlight Well this place is old It feels just like a beat up truck I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn Well it smells of cheap wine and cigarettes This place is always such a mess Sometimes i think i'd like to watch it burn I'm so alone, and i feel just like somebody else Man, i ain't changed, but i know i ain't the same But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams I think of death it must be killin' me Hey, come on try a little Nothing is forever There's got to be something better than In the middle But me & cinderella We put it all together we can drive it home With one headlight

I know I don't belong here But is that why I'm here? I don't care if I don't see this world As a grandiose place But sometimes I know that I am It's just this once I feel like I am Because you're a wallflower you know You should write something about me sometimes You see things And you keep them to yourself you do I know I try to hard When I should be at home With the feelings I get from my heart But just this once I don't want to be ignored To look in the mirror and not feel sad about it Because you're a wallflower you know You should write something about me sometimes You see things And you keep them to yourself you do Meet me in another place If I ever get the chance Meet me in another place That way I can tell you what I think of you I'm a back bedroom casualty Do you understand? Write something wallflower I will

The push is always part of us And gravity's never a friend Deciding on who we can trust And finding our way to crescendo To the unknown We'll never make it outside Lest we unlock the past and release The future that we've left to die For too long we've taken placebos But the unknown, is awakening Don't give up now There's already so much at stake If Atlas falls I'll rise up and carry us all the way No, we can never look back Return to the salt and the sea The quiet is only a trap And I will not take the placebos 'Cause the unknown is awakening But I will crescendo Don't give up now There's already so much at stake If Atlas falls I'll rise up and carry us all the way It won't pull me down The weight of impossible days I'll stand tall I'll rise up and carry us all the way Keep moving forward now Keep your head above the clouds I'm right with you, I will lift you Just hold on Don't give up now There's already so much at stake If Atlas falls I'll rise up and carry us all the way It won't pull me down The weight of impossible days I'll stand tall I'll rise up and carry us all the way I'll carry us all the way
