Hello
Hello here I am alone on the ledge
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
I never knew how this voice of mine could carry me so far
I'm still watching my friends enter the stratosphere
While I'm just trying to get around by car
And it's just as well, I don't really enjoy a stage
I prefer the dingy closets over leading my own parade
I can get why some at the top give up the spotlight
So many listening to every word you say can give a star stage fright
And it's so much more comfortable choosing to teach rather than to lead
And I don't know what path is the right one for me
Hello here I am alone on the ledge
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
No one seems to really care what a nonbinary poet seems to think
Like I'm a old patron at the bar and the tender just wants to give me my drink and leave
Seems to me its best keeping my thoughts to myself
But here I am at the mic again pulling these old notebooks down from the shelf
And I'm calling out my scars by name
I'm giving the poet a stage
5 albums in and I haven't run out of stupid things to say
And yet the question still remains
And yet the question still remains
Hello here I am alone on the ledge
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
It's been a lonely walk and I can't yet see the finish line
So many have put their last thoughts to sound, and I have yet to finish mine
I'm yet again spending 5 minutes to talk about myself
And I've always say preach what you know
But I've just begun to understand the face in the mirror
So maybe I should have left these thoughts on the shelf
Maybe I should have left this gig alone
I've got 20 years of hypocrisy left to atone
And I still only sing these songs at home
But the Pendrop is only me and there's no one else to pick up the phone
Hello here I am alone on the ledge
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
I never knew how this voice of mine could carry me so far
I'm still watching my friends enter the stratosphere
While I'm just trying to get around by car
And it's just as well, I don't really enjoy a stage
I prefer the dingy closets over leading my own parade
I can get why some at the top give up the spotlight
So many listening to every word you say can give a star stage fright
And it's so much more comfortable choosing to teach rather than to lead
And I don't know what path is the right one for me
Hello here I am alone on the ledge
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
No one seems to really care what a nonbinary poet seems to think

Hello here I am alone on the ledge
Everyone knows I'm dying to fly
Hello here I am alone again
Everyone knows I'm waiting for the sky
