[V1]

Living for the approval

Of people I don’t even know

Is it even worth still chasing

Or should I just get on with the show?

I used to thrive off all attention

Used to live for the praise

Trying to make it in a business

Where there’s an overflow anyway

[C]

I keep giving myself false hope

That the crowds in the stands will actually stand

Hold up lights to songs I wrote with my own bare hands

And it’ll never do

I keep giving myself false hope

That you will still give me a chance

I’m just a teenage guy with some big, big plans

But will it ever do?

[V2]

Wishing on shooting stars

Trying out for all these shows

But the only thing that gets back

To me is my own piano

Am I good enough?

Will I be enough?

Am I getting to old?

‘Cause all my favorite heroes started young

Already performing their own shows

[C]

I keep giving myself false hope

That I am just wasting my life

On something I’ve gave my whole heart to

And it’ll never do

I keep giving myself false hope

That you will believe in me

One day, I’ll never forget all that you did

But will it ever do?

[B]

Is it time to believe I’m a dream gone wasted?

Is that so hard to do?

Sometimes I fall too hard on the safety net

And I fall right though

Am I enough for you?

Did a self reflection in the mirror

The seasons have rolled by from year to year

Is it time to give up on the thing that led me to you?

That’s something I’m not gonna do

‘Cause even though I know that this dream is a long shot

I still got you

Oh, I got you

I'm riding this bullet with you

Because I got you

Thank you for all you do
