If you work hard at something long enough 
Success has [bad word] from it 
Don’t waste your time 
And with enough want 

You’re guaranteed some form of reward 
How can you accept 
Knowing that you tried 
When time is on your side? 

How can you accept 
Knowing that you try 
When time is on your side? 

Why fight yourself when the only thing 
We have to fear, is fear itself? 
Ones with imagination dread the worst 
When there are souls that are stuck in reverse 
And lost to the rest of society 
So destroy yourselves 
Those who drag down with me 

Determination and perseverance 
Have brought me to this stage 
The unknown future rolls toward us 
And now we’ll write it as we go along 

The thought of wasting my life creeps up on me every day 
Thoughts of a wasted life creep up on me 

Be thankful for everything and everyone 
You’ll ever have at your side 

Hopes are out of focus, and out of sight 
I know I’m only young 
Yet something doesn’t feel right 
I hate that I think so fearfully for my life 
How everything that’s going to be 
Watches me 
And waits for me 

Waits for me 
Waits for me 
Waits for me 

So consent me to tell a tale, if what you say is real 
So much for the ones who said they’d never fail 
Although it may seem strange 
There’s so many ways how our lives have changed 
Pathetic fallacy, the sky poured and spilled the galaxy 
This is what I’ve always seen 
And this is the way I will set myself free
