Pieces Of Me

Looking and waiting

For a chance to shine

Fighting, concealing

These demons of mine

I'm innocent but I'm hardly a saint

Fighting and living without a complaint

Feeling those feelings

That I can't ignore

Like whatever I try

Will be worse than before

I want to break free but I'm bound to burn out

And that's the idea still filling me with doubt

I've got a fear of failure

And fear of the dark

How am I supposed to find a new start?

Maybe perfection is too high a goal

Maybe the answer's buried in my soul

I, I could dare to stand tall

If it means I could fall

To conquer it all

I believe I'm something

More than a drop in the sea

Because I hope you'll believe

The pieces of me

Are broken but there are beautiful things they could be

Breaking in pieces

That I can't repair

Cracks and light scratches

From times I got scared

I ran away but I'm running right back

I opened my eyes before my world turned black

I'm not all useless

I'm just a bit used

I'll take the chances

That others refused

I'm building something inside of my heart

A flawlessly flawed and simple work of art

I've got a fear of failure

And fear of the dark

How am I supposed to find a new start?

Maybe perfection is too high a goal

Maybe the answer's buried in my soul

I tripped

I fell

My plan didn't work out so well

But I don't want

To give up right here

I know

The cost

But I believe not all is lost

There's still a chance

To make me appear
