I tried to warn you the day this began I'm broken inside, yeah, I'm half of a man But I'm doing my best The best that I can I made it clear from the day that we met That I overthink every word, every breath So just know that I mean Every word that I've said I know that I will, but how short will I fall? Well, I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong I put you on a pedestal But you just keep rising Amber in the sky You're an endless horizon And I've got these wax wings that ain't made for flying If you let me, I'll keep climbing Till the seams of the world come apart If I'm lucky I know where I'll be Up there with you in the stars I know that I will, but how short will I fall? Well, I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong 'Cause I'm just a man With two shaky hands Convinced that you're better alone But I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong Don't have much to my name but I'll spend every day Just going wherever you want to go When your brown turns to grey And my mind starts to fade You'll be the last memory I'll hold I know that I will, but how short will I fall? Well, I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong 'Cause I'm just a man With two shaky hands Convinced that you're better alone But I hope that you give me a lifetime to prove myself wrong
