Trying so hard to be...
[Style:  Hoobastank?]

Verse 1

I’ll never walk there again
You’ll never see me break
There’s no time to chafe in my skin
When all I am now is awake

Verse 2

I’ve taken the high road before
It led to an incline so steep
I will not step through the door
With promises I can’t keep

Chorus

My prospects are few, but they’re good
Wonder if I should
Ask for a redo or say that I need you
I feel like I’m misunderstood
Can’t explain it away

My prospects are few, but they’re good
Wonder if I could
Start over clean without losing the meaning I’ve gained
Please help me to remain…sane.

Verse 3 (soft, pause after first two lines, normal tempo just after third line, last two lines are driving right up to chorus)

There’s no telling what happens next…
The future’s not ours to behold…
Su-re-al-i-ty is the best…
When life gets too real, in my mind
I conceal it…

Bridge????????????

Where is…(it!)
I want…(it)
Can’t find…(it)
Save me from…(it)
I’ll live with…(it)
I’ll fight for…(it)
I cry for
Won’t die for...(it)

Sanity!
