Kept to myself as a kid, no one could hide quite like i did
Found my self in a room with an unmade bed
Traded in my shoes for boots of lead
Oh, but i'm not stuck; i'm just moving slowly
Loosened my tie just like a man
Stood up as tall as i could stand
Found myself in a warehouse with rusted doors
Traded in my bed for wooden floors
But i'm not stuck; i'm just moving slowly
Now i'm putting birds in their cages
When i used to just let them go
Graphite marks on the pages, if i could translate these hieroglyphics into words then you would know
That i'm not that down
Yeah, you'd know it's just hard for me
Catching up to pace with mistakes, a race i'll never lead
Here i am gaining speed
Loosened my tie just like a man
Stood up as tall as i could stand
Found myself in a warehouse with rusted doors
Traded in my bed for wooden floors
But i'm not stuck; i'm just moving slowly
