Faint of Heart

Staring at these keys of black and white,
It used to be so easy to tell them all my secrets
Now I can't seem to quiet down my mind
I've heard so many lies that I'm starting to believe them

Maybe I'm too old to be a pop star,
maybe I'm to young to be wise Maybe I don't fit into the
box they want to put me in 'cause I refuse to compromise
But I'll keep circling this mountain that stands between where I am
and the stars 'Cause dreaming was
never meant to be for the faint of heart
I spend every penny that I have
I drive across the country, prayin' it means something
And i swear I've held my husband back
Say that when I sign a deal, we'll finally start a family

Maybe I'm too old to be a pop star,
maybe I'm to young to be wise Maybe I don't fit into the
box they want to put me in 'cause I refuse to compromise
But I'll keep circling this mountain that stands between where I am
and the stars 'Cause dreaming was
never meant to be for the faint of heart
I'm so tired of opinions about who I should be
Some days I want to quit so bad that it hurts to breathe
And I can't help but wonder if somehow I got this wrong
But then every time my heart starts to break, I write another song
Maybe I'm too old to be a pop star,
maybe I'm to young to be wise Maybe I don't fit into the
box they want to put me in 'cause I refuse to compromise
But I'll keep circling this mountain that stands between where I am
and the stars 'Cause dreaming was
never meant to be for the faint of heart
