Much The Same Quitters Never Win

Ive waited long enough and Ive been putting it all off

Its time I got myself going again

Ive made enough excuses to last til the end of time

Ive got to move forward with my plans

I tell myself that I am not cut out for this

I dont like anything thats happening now

But when I think of losing everything Ive done so far

I know Ive got to make it work somehow



What good is a friend if you cant look him in the eye?

What good is honesty if it feels like a lie?

What good is a dream if you never even try?



I thought that I was free and that I left that guy behind

I wanted to believe that someday Id reach the sky

And if I dont press on then Ill watch the new me die

And the sadder self survive



This isnt as easy as they make it look on TV

Id never have guessed it was so hard

And maybe you can hear it in the strain of my voice

The perils of it caught me off guard

But when you know that burning deep inside of you

Is not something so easily ignored

You get back on that horse no matter how many times you fall

Cause its better than everything youve done before



What good is a friend if you cant look him in the eye?

What good is honesty if it feels like a lie?

What good is a dream if you never even try?



I thought that I was free and that I left that guy behind

I wanted to believe that someday Id reach the sky

And if I dont press on then Ill watch the new me die

And the sadder self survive



My life is chronicled in lapses of writers block

Opening a window to let my feelings be mocked

You ask me why I put myself through this, to you I say

If youve ever chased a dream you know I can have it no other way

This is me today
