Lyrics

If I fall down will I get back to my feet?
Could I love again were my heart torn from me?
When this body dies and my soul is at peace
Will I live on as a legend or just fade to memory?
There’s so much else I’d rather be
So much else I’d rather see
Than all my life wasted chasing dreams
That were other people’s memories
I want to live a life that no one has before
Don't want to sing a song from someone else's score
I'm so tired of painting pictures I've already seen before
Don't want to be a mockingbird anymore
So when I fall down I will get back to my feet
I will overcome the fears that cripple me
And when shadows fall on me I won't turn back
Cause I know the darkest times will be the ones that strengthen me
There’s so much else I’d rather be
So much else I’d rather see
Than all my life wasted chasing dreams
That were other people’s memories
I want to live a life that no one has before
Don't want to sing a song from someone else's score
I'm so tired of painting pictures I've already seen before
Don't want to be a mockingbird anymore
There’s so much else that we could see
So much else we were meant to be
So take a leap of faith with me
And we’ll keep on falling til we learn to fly
I’m gonna live a life that no one has before
Not gonna sing a song from someone else's score
I'm so tired of painting pictures I've already seen before
Not gonna be a mockingbird anymore
