A DESPERATE ENDEAVOR lyrics : "When I Grow Up, I Want To Be An Astronaut"
I'm better with words than others.
I guess tonight makes me the poet,
That I've always strived to be.
It took a lot of self reflection,
And intervention,
To get me to this point.
I could sit here waiting,
Silently debating.
I could get to my feet,
And get myself going.
Are they listening?
Are you listening?
Some nights,
I feel like I could fall into the stars.
Let it take me away,
To a distant place,
Where my heart doesn't feel so lost.
Some nights,
I refuse to believe,
That gravity keeps a hold on me.
And before I die,
I want to take the nighttime sky,
And make it mine.
You know you're stuck at the bottom,
When you finally call it home.
It goes to show,
That all I know,
Get's thrown off to the side,
When this state of mind kicks in.
I can't help but feel like %#@! again.
There has to be a point of resuscitation;
A breaking point,
Or a single moment of clarity.
Some nights,
I feel like I could fall into the stars.
Let it take me away,
To a distant place,
Where my heart doesn't feel so lost.
Some nights,
I refuse to believe,
That gravity keeps a hold on me.
And before I die,
I want to take the nighttime sky,
And make it mine.
I'm a liar,
The greatest I've ever known.
I burn bridges with the best of them,
It's all it takes,
To keep me from sinking further into this hole,
I dug myself.
Does this mean anything,
To anyone else?
Are they listening?
Are you listening?
Some nights,
I feel like I could fall into the stars.
Let it take me away,
To a distant place,
Where my heart doesn't feel so lost.
Some nights,
I refuse to believe,
That gravity keeps a hold on me.
And before I die,
I want to take the nighttime sky,
And make it mine.
