I know somebody whose life is tough I help a little but it isn't enough 'Cause I go spend money on stupid stuff When I know he's strugglin' to stay above And I have so many chances to be The hero I believe's inside of me But I get busy and I get distracted And I do nothing when I could've acted (chorus) I laid low when I could've stood high I said nothing when I should've asked why Saw something I might have done and I didn't A chance to speak my truth and I hid it Inside I'd like to believe I'm cool Easy to love and hard to fool But I know there's more I could have enjoyed Sometimes I find myself thinking Maybe I missed the point So many times I've turned down love Stayed in the dark when I could of lit it up But every time I did take a chance It makes me happy when I'm looking back I'm not saying my whole life feels like a joke But I've been a master of mirrors and smoke And I don't want to live no more without you (chorus)
