Dollar Store Prophet

My story starts like so many others
Nothing unique here to share
Just a hole in my heart that was so big
I was afraid that I'd fall in there
Yea, I'd fall in there

I was trying to build a life that made sense
Out of things I found in gift shops
I felt like a poet that can't rhyme,
A drummer without time
Something needed to stop

Needed to stop
And I swear I didn't know no better
Oh no

I've tried my best to to be the best that I can be
If that's not good enough, that's all I got
I've got faith in myself, friends and family
That's all the faith I need

It seemed to me I found something special
Something gave me a reason to live
Without her I felt I was nothing
That's when I realized something had to give

Yea she was just a dollar store prophet
She had nothing worth nothing to share
She filled me with poison just to sell me a cure
But that cure was nothing but air

Nothing but air
And I swear I didn't know no better
Oh no

I've tried my best to to be the best that I can be
If that's not good enough, that's all I got
I've got faith in myself, friends and family
That's all the faith I need

I've tried my best to to be the best that I can be
If that's not good enough, that's all I got
I've got faith in myself, friends and family
That's all the faith I need
