Chasing This

I’m sorry that I’m not around

I’ve been chasing my dreams with my head in the clouds

Years pass and my friends are all gone

I guess it seems I got lost in this song

Come home to dust in my bed

To plants that have died from lack of being fed

Missed funerals and birthdays

Never meant to miss life when I was away, away

We’ve been chasing this, all of our years

It goes far beyond all our blood, sweat and tears, Oh

We’ve been chasing this, all of our years

Want it so bad, you’re willing to face all your fears

You’ve been told, that you're never gonna get it

You’ve been told, that you’re never gonna get it

But you know, that what’s burning you’s brighter than gold

And I’ll chase it till the day that I go

Remember the night that we walked, from Bleecker to Ditmars

Oh and we talked of our dreams till the sunrise

Over the Queensborough bridge with our eyes open wide

Still keep that moment with me

When we’re up on this stage screaming victory

Oh I’m terrified of who I would be if I never had a melody

Terrified of who I’d be

We’ve been chasing this, all of our years

It goes far beyond all our blood, sweat and tears, Oh

We’ve been chasing this, all of our years

Want it so bad, you’re willing to face all your fears

You’ve been told, that you're never gonna get it

You’ve been told, that you’re never gonna get it

But you know, that what’s burning you’s brighter than gold

And I’ll chase it till the day that I go

Oh the doubt paves my insides, body so tense its paralyzed

Fearful of these butterflies

But they’re just your friends dressed in disguise

But they’re just your friends dressed in disguise

And we’ll take their wings to reach great heights

1, 2, 3, 4

We’ve been chasing this, all of our years

It goes far beyond all our blood, sweat and tears, Oh

We’ve been chasing this, all of our years

Want it so bad, you’re willing to face all your fears

You’ve been told, that you're never gonna get it

You’ve been told, that you’re never gonna get it

But you know, that what’s burning you’s brighter than gold

And I’ll chase it till the day that I go
