Lyrics

I've been told that I've changed for the better
But the growing pains sting
On the outside, the problems I've weathered
Seem to pass all the same
But I haven't grown quite as much as I might be showing
My confidence stands on attention they show me
Some days, I'll kill it but it might kill me
If the question never leaves
Am I the archetype
Or cheap imitation?
What if I sacrifice
When I should have listened?
There's a sweet, sweet light in the corner,
But I can't tell
So, I still ask myself,
Am I the archetype
Or not quite enough?
I can see that the continent's sliding
But my day-to-day's rough
When can all of the conversation
Turn away from the mud?
Cuz I couldn't care any less if you paid me to bother
My god complex says if it's good then it's proper
But I'm not in Heaven and neither are you
So, for now, I'll have to do
Am I the archetype
Or cheap imitation?
What if I sacrifice
When I should have listened?
There's a sweet, sweet light in the corner,
But I can't tell
So, I still ask myself,
Am I the archetype
Or not quite enough?
Am I the archetype
Or cheap imitation?
What if I sacrifice
When I should have listened?
There's a sweet, sweet light in the corner,
But I can't tell
So, I still ask myself,
Am I the archetype
Or not quite enough?
