Uh, you let me fade into the sounds
You built a noise and let it drown
You put me in the lost and found
Now I'll never escape this town
It's not as funny as it was
These things are better while we're young
You really had to let me down
Now I'll never escape this town
This is the way you hear my voice
I ain't never had a choice (never had a choice)
You play with me like a toy, toy, toy
At one point I was your boy
It's not as funny as it was
These things are better while we're young (not overreactin)
You really tried to put me down, down, down
Like you don't know just where I'm from
Better stay out my way
I've had a lot of dark days
I gotta find my escape
It's all around me
I can't take no more abuse
I've got so much I can prove
To all the ones who don't think I'll be who I'm born to be
I opened up to the world
All my emotions unfurled
Should open up to my girl
But I get scared
And then she gives me reassurance
But I'm still not so sure
All the darkness still remains
And all the demons, they still stir
I'm just captivated by all of these sounds I can create
All these words pour out of me as if I opened the floodgates
When I'm down and on my ass, I turn to my only passion
I won't be deterred by some negative comment, in passing
When I'm finally free
To be who I wanna be
I'll be the best thing to come out of this town in Missouri
It's taken lot's of patience
Sometimes I'm sick of waitin
But it'll pay off in the end, and the light is what I'll see
