Footprints

Well this is life it's a game we all choose to play
Even when the cards aren't dealt fairly
We all tried skipping rocks on the sea
But the reflection from the stars don't stand out to me
Anymore
Well I know band-aids won't heal growing pains
But I still try everyday
In hopes this goes away

So let my feet bleed til' I can no longer stand
Let my lungs give out while breathing in the ocean air
Let me scream at the top of my lungs til' my voice gives out
I'd take the road less traveled by
But footprints are covering the ground

We are all dusty unopened books waiting for our ink to be worn in
Winter it comes and goes in time
Leaving only frost behind

So let my feet bleed til' I can no longer stand
Let my lungs give out while breathing in the ocean air
Let me scream at the top of my lungs til' my voice gives out
I'd take the road less traveled by
But footprints are covering the ground

I am searching for some peace of mind
Surrounded by brawlers and revelers
Why try when there's no such thing as peace of mind
Just let me wander like a child

So let my feet bleed til' I can no longer stand
Let my lungs give out while breathing in the ocean air
Let me scream at the top of my lungs til' my voice gives out
I'd take the road less traveled by
But footprints are covering the ground
So let my feet bleed til' I can no longer stand
Let my lungs give out while breathing in the ocean air
Let me scream at the top of my lungs til' my voice gives out
I'd take the road less traveled by
But footprints are covering the ground
