Courage Journal

Did my kingdom fade
Before it saw its rightful day?
Am I wasting away
Or living the dream?
It's hard to say

Cut out the light from the skies
And put it in my eyes
Set up the scene to look like I try
Every day is a fight
To postpone my plight
The dream of getting by for doing nothing

Get on your horse and ride
Into the sunset
Into the sunset
I'll stay behind
And wait for my time to shine
Get on your horse
And ride
Here comes the sound
Of scraping by
Of getting precisely what you need
To survive
I could pave my path
With the finest things
Wear the crowns of kings
If I felt like it
But I don't
Not yet

Here comes the sound
Of experience thusly
Pretending my squalor life
Isn't luxury
I'll do as I please
For as long as I please
And when it is time
To take what is mine
It will be mine

Cut out the light from the skies
And put it in my eyes
Set up the scene to look like I try
Every day is a fight
To postpone my plight
The dream of getting by for doing nothing
