Wax Wings

I tried to warn you the day this began

I'm broken inside yeah I'm half of a man

But I'm doing my best

The best that I can

I made it clear from the day that we met

That I overthink every word every breath

So just know that I mean

Every word that I've said

I know that I will, but how short will I fall?

Well I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong

I put you on a pedestal

But you just keep rising

Amber in the sky

You're an endless horizon

And I've got these wax wings that ain't made for flying

If you let me I'll keep climbing

Till the seams of the world come apart

If I'm lucky

I know where I'll be

Up there with you in the stars

I know that I will, but how short will I fall?

Well I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong

'Cause I'm just a man

With two shaky hands

Convinced that you're better alone

But I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong

Don't have much to my name but I'll spend everyday

Just going wherever you want to go

When your brown turns to grey

And my mind starts fade

You'll be the last memory I'll hold

I know that I will, but how short will I fall?

Well I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong

'Cause I'm just a man

With two shaky hands

Convinced that you're better alone

But I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong
