Thinking I Can

Somewhere there's a boat full of all the things
I'm too afraid to start
It holds all my fear
Lets itself stay tethered to the dock
It's a stagnant thing
But with each wave it still knows how to rock

Somewhere there's a boat full of all the things
I'm too afraid to finish
It holds all my hope
Still don't feel like it's worth a dime
Lets the water rot its wood
Like it's waiting for just the right time

All the things I thought I'd be by now
I'm still asking the moon how
All the things I thought I'd be by now
I made the mistake of waiting on
Still make the mistake of waiting on
Thinking I can be something I never try to become

The timeline, pushed a little bit back has a kid
Still wishing on stars
She doesn't know that what she's looking at
Most of it is dead
It's sky full of corpses
She dreams of shining like when she goes to bed

All the things I thought I'd be by now
I'm still asking the moon how
All the things I thought I'd be by now
I made the mistake of waiting on
Still make the mistake of waiting on
Thinking I can be something I never try to become

I watch my ships sail one by one
Because it's easier
Than admitting I was wrong
Or maybe I was right
Or maybe I have tried and failed
In all of my past lives
I watch my ships sail one by one
Because it's easier
Than riding them out

All the things I thought I'd be by now
I'm still asking the moon how
All the things I thought I'd be by now
I made the mistake of waiting on
Still make the mistake of waiting on
Thinking I can be something when I never try
I never try
When I never try
I never try

I just keep thinking I can
