Why am I holding on to all these dreams
  That are dragging me down,
  Instead of leading me away from here.
  There has got to be so much more than
  All of this growing older and living life unfulfilled.
  How can I continue to pretend that the scars I left and
  Those left on me, aren't killing me?
  I can't keep trying to pretend that I am
  Just going to wish these scars away.
  If it were to end today what would be
  Left to show but thousands of my broken dreams.
  Mirrored by your success,
  I will never measure up to you,
  But I can't let this defeat me.
  How can I continue to pretend that the scars I left and
  Those left on me, aren't killing me?
  I can't keep trying to pretend that I am
  Just going to wish them all away.
  I am daring to dream, but I can't fly.
  I can't fly with these broken wings.
