Wanted
What if we really believed
What we said we did?
What if we lived the way
We knew was right?
What if taking time off
Wasn’t an option?
And it was now
Or it was never?
Open your eyes
Don’t you see it?
You are being drained
Strained and distracted
They tell you to close your eyes and relax
Because they are taking away your tomorrow
The one that was supposed to be written
The one we needed you to write
But you were too busy
What if we stood for
The things that moved our hearts?
What if we opened the door
When we saw opportunity coming?
We are scared to death of our own dreams
Scared that maybe it is true
That the passion burns inside us for a reason
And our role is irreplaceable
And maybe that will cost me everything
But no
Let me fritter my time
Let me rest
I deserve a break today
I feel as guilty as hell because I crossed the line
I know it
And so I drown it
And do it all over again
There has to be more
There has to be a door out of here
Open me
Take me
Save me
