it's hard to know which way to go
when you don't know where you are
and why you're going
which? when? where? why?

I followed the signs
pointing down one-way streets
and ended up with nothing
follow me down

easier to sit and wait
and wonder
than to venture on my own now
wait and do what?

but I know that I can't stay
forever more inside myself
imprisoned
get your shit straight

but it's too late to turn back
all that's left is moving on
need to pick myself back up
and find a way to carry on

I don't want to let you down
but I can't seem to hold myself up
I can't lift my feet off the ground
when will I ever wake up

it's everything that I worked for
but what does it all mean
got everything that I deserved
but never what I need

are you proud of me
'cause I can't say I am
I don't know who to be
and I still don't have a plan

if I search for something more
I don't know just what I'll find
but I gotta step through that door
and leave this all behind

you guided me throughout all of those years
down what you thought was the correct path
now that I'm here, standing at the end
find that I'm lost, where do I begin
can my life begin

it's always something that I wanted to say
and I know that things didn't turn out that way
it's always something that I wanted to know
but I'll say one thing and do another

it's not a dead end
we're not dead
you'll find your way

I don't want to let you down
but I can't seem to hold myself up
I can't lift my feet off the ground
and will I ever wake up

it's everything that I worked for
but what does it all mean
got everything that I deserved
but never what I need

I don't want to let you down
but I can't seem to hold myself up
my feet cemented to the ground
when will I ever wake up

it's everything that I worked for
but what does it all mean
got everything that I deserved
but never what I needed

it's not your dead end.
