Maybe if I cry harder

Maybe if I scream both my lungs out

Maybe I can bribe the Author

Maybe He'll redeem all my wrongs now

Maybe it's too deep

Maybe I'm 2D

Maybe the whole story's already written for me

Maybe I'm asleep laying on my bed

Too busy dreaming of needs that go unmet

J-j-j-jaded frustrated

I really wish I could change this

But if I did I'd be Satan

Leave it to God He's more gracious

Just be careful what you wish for

Pencils turn to pitchforks

Halos into horns when you think with prideful discourse

Imagine if I scream harder, if I think deeper what could possibly amount?

Imagine if I pray longer, if I fight better in my strength will it count?

Man I'm frustrated with all my shortcomings, hate it

But somehow think I can make it on my own, I'm down for the count

In it like quicksand

How can I withstand

Self giving burdens?

Throw up my white flag

In it like quicksand

How can I withstand

Self giving burdens?

Throw up my white flag

Maybe if I cry harder

Maybe if I scream both my lungs out

Maybe I can bribe the Author

Maybe He'll redeem all my wrongs now

Maybe it's too deep

Maybe I'm 2D

Maybe the whole story's already written for me

Maybe I'm asleep laying on my bed

Too busy dreaming of needs that go unmet
