My Road

This empty room is full of angst
A notebooks on the bed
But the pages are all blank
The door is closed; the lights are dim
Anything to try and keep the world away from him

All he wants is something new
They gave him pressure; it’s the least that they could do
The light outside is moving past
Oh he tries to jump in, but it’s moving too fast

And they told him just what he needs to know
And they know this; they have no doubts at all
But he won’t just seem to calm down and do what people want
So he goes out and writes the perfect wrong
In his unfaithful song

Now the middle page is full of sweat and tears
With words between the lines that he tries to make appear
And when they do he sees something new
It’s like a painting on a page that he’s not yet used to

All he wants is to give his truth
They gave him pressure, and they stole away his youth
Now he tries to find his own road
It’s so hard to find one, but it’s easy to come close

And they told him just what he needs to know
And they know this; they have no doubts at all
But he won’t just seem to calm down and do what people want
So he goes out and writes the perfect wrong
In his unfaithful song

And they told him just what he needs to know
And they know this; they have no doubts at all
But he won’t just seem to calm down and do what people want
So he goes out and writes the perfect wrong
But he goes out and writes the perfect wrong
But he goes out and writes the perfect wrong
In his unfaithful song
