lyrics

Thought back to the other day where I blurred the lines of depressed and okay
Fell asleep with dry eyes for the first time I think this month
Used to sing about life and hope and people would tell me my songs helped them cope
How come I can′t take my own advice

I once believed I could change the world
I once believed I was somebody special

What's the point of living
If you just live for nothing
What′s the point of dreaming if you don't believe in them
And everyone keeps asking
"Do you have it in you to keep going"
I don't have it in me to give up

Thought back to the other year where I blurred the lines of courage and fear
Nineteen with the whole world in my hands
Sang songs about seeing through lies
How come now I cannot see through mine
I can′t let that bleeding heartfelt young kid down

What′s the point of living
If you just live for nothing
What's the point of dreaming if you don′t believe in them
And everyone keeps asking
"Do you have it in you to keep going"
I don't have it in me to give up

Nobody wants to live just to die
We all have things we chase in this life
If you believe in yourself
There′s nothing you cannot
Nothing you can't accomplish

Nobody wants to live just to die
We all have things we chase in this life
If you believe in yourself
There′s nothing you cannot
Nothing you can't accomplish

Nobody wants to live just to die
We all have things we chase in this life
If you believe in yourself
There's nothing you cannot
Nothing you can′t accomplish

Nobody wants to live just to die
We all have things we chase in this life
If you believe in yourself
There′s nothing you cannot
Nothing you can't accomplish
