Leave a Legacy

I'm alone in my room again
(No, they've heard that one before)
More dramatic internal conflict
(Well, by now that's just a bore)
No one cares about a messy breakup
Or my tears crashing into the floor
Do I give up, just cut my losses
Or try to write one more

How can I make a splash
In an ocean this vast
Could a pebble like me
Last in everyone's memory

Could I
Leave a legacy
Craft a beautiful symphony
Something that deserves to be
And is and never fails to be
Great and new and strong
(And alive)
Something that's completely mine
Or at least not a waste of time

I'm tired of this constant struggle
(But it's not like any of you care)
My mind is consistently troubled
(But that's not worth a share)
What else can I possibly say
How do I even dare
To sing about my problems
Like I'm even self-aware

Can I be a great
Or just make more music to hate
Can someone like me
Live in someone else's memory

Could I
Leave a legacy
Craft a beautiful symphony
Something that deserves to be
And is and never fails to be
Great and new and strong
(And alive)
Something that's completely mine
Or at least not a waste of time

Keep trying to make the stage
Or give up and walk away
Tread the road before you
Or try to carve your own way

Let the world define you
Or let everyone defy you
Ditch them all and reach for the stars
Some king you are
