Fall Short

What If I fall short of what I'm meant to be?

What if the world this time's catching up with me?

I tore my portrait down off the mantlepiece

Oh when I saw what I lost right in front of me

Just woke up and five years

Had disappeared out of reach

It's a blurry mess and I'm the

Passenger in my front seat

When there's someone that you could've been

But you let go of the wheel again

And I looked in the rear view now I'm struggling

With some strangers eyes on me

What If I fall short of what I'm meant to be?

What if the world this time's catching up on me?

I tore my portrait down off the mantlepiece

Oh when I saw what I lost right in front of me

So what if I fall short?

If I fall short?

So if I fall short of what I'm meant to be

Don't replace the space I leave

Spent all your money, wrecked a head start

What your dad sees in you, you only see half

But your mother still loves you with the same heart

Wearing rose coloured glasses

There's someone that I could've of been

But I'm asleep at the wheel again

And I know I made a promise

But if I'm being honest

I'll fall short of what I'm meant to be

What if the world this time's catching up on me?

I tore my portrait down off the mantlepiece

Oh when I saw what I lost right in front of me

So what if I fall short?

If I fall short?

So if I fall short of what I'm meant to be

Don't replace the space I leave

[I know what I had, we know what we had,

I know that's it's gone]

I keep falling, I keep falling short

Cause there's someone that I could've been

But I've gone and messed it up again

Yeah I know what I had, and why you're gone

Cause I fell short of what I'm meant to be

I guess the world this time it caught up with me

I put my portrait back on the mantlepiece

Time to face that man staring back at me

What If I fall short of what I'm meant to be?

What if the world this time's catching up on me?

I tore my portrait down off the mantlepiece

Oh when I saw what I lost right in front of me

So what if I fall short?

If I fall short?

So if I fall short of what I'm meant to be

If I fall short
