Live up to This

She felt the weight suffocate her lungs
With no restraint they double taped her thumbs
Her ears were cloaked by the perforated poem

They said you can live up to this
You can live up to this
Take my heart and wear it as your own
She said I can live up to you
I can live up to you
I'll take your heart and wear it as my own
And I'll call your place my home

She walked a while pondering her fate
With lots of doubt she took it the right way
Impressive strain for someone of her age
But she knew something's wrong
With the letters on this page

They said you can live up to this
You can live up to this
Take my heart and wear it as your own
She said I can live up to you
I can live up to you
I'll take your heart and wear it as my own
And I'll call your place my home

Lights guide her
Deep inside her
But they put them out
Future roses
Made for poses
In a yellow cardboard house
She'll always second guess herself

You can live up to this
You can live up to this
Take my heart and wear it as your own
She said I can live up to you
I can live up to you
I'll take your heart and wear it as my own
And I'll call your place my home
