Honesty

I can't fall in love without falling to pieces
I can't carry hope without fear underneath it

I think a lot about legacy
It's a word that's burrowed in my brain
I don't know what'll mean for me
But it's the only thing driving me through this pain

What will I leave behind?
What'll be my mark on this world?
Will it survive as this earth goes cold
As my hands grow old
And when the warmth leaves my soul?
When they commit me to the hole
What'll be the sum of my life's work?
'Cause I've got this voice that says quit
It's like pulling teeth and I'm sick of it

I can't fall in love without falling to pieces
Can't carry hope without fear underneath it
But if I can find a way to give this life meaning
I'll be okay

I've never felt so unfulfilled
And the bitter pill is that I'm one to blame
I can either be an agent of change
Or just lie in wait as everything stays the same

I can't fall in love without falling to pieces
Can't carry hope without fear underneath it
But if I can find a way to give this life meaning
I'll be okay

I'll be okay
I hope I find it one day

'Cause
I've been thinking
God I hope I'm dreaming
'Cause I'm drowning in this life
In this lie
In this life
I've been thinking
About leaving
And going to find a life - meant for me
Find a life

I've been thinking a lot about my mistakes and the steps that lead me here

I've been thinking
Fuck it - I've been dreaming

I can't fall in love without falling to pieces
Can't carry hope without fear underneath it
But if I can find a way to give this life meaning
I'll be okay
