Rain's seeping into my shoes today
I'd take a cab but I couldn't pay
Stop in for coffee along the way
Umbrella sprays
I'm digging for change

Leadbelly playing a song
I long to sing
And he's saying try to be strong
Just feel so far from who I wanna be

Well I've got a song and it screams in my heart
A crystal glass it's breaking apart
I tell myself it's the path I chose
Knocking on doors that wanna stay closed

Leadbelly playing a song
I long to sing
And he's saying try to be strong
Just feel so far from who I wanna be

When did these dreams go and grow so tall
They got so big and I feel so small
I'm giving everything I got
But all I can see is all that I'm not

Leadbelly playing a song
I long to sing
And he's saying try to be strong
Just feel so far from who I wanna

Leadbelly playing a song
I long to sing
And he's saying try to be strong
Just feel so far from who I wanna
Feel so far from who I wanna
Feel so far from who I wanna be.
