Deserter

You’re too afraid to risk what’s familiar
Another day has come and another past.
Yet every day seems just like the last.
How did we get here? How did we get here?
What is this place and how do we get back?
A novel situation was what I sought.
An unending story; at least I thought.
I remember when you said that I was enough.
But you turned your back when times got tough.
So look into my eyes.
Tell me the truth.
It was never about me and you.
It was never. It was never.
You turned you're back
(Chorus)
You're too afraid to risk what’s known for the unfamiliar.
But great men only exist for the risks they've taken.
Choices that I’ve made built up who I am today
Instead of giving in I have been awakened
There's got to be more to life than this.
Isn’t there more to life?
Isn’t there more than this?
The more I look at the past year the more I see what I accomplished.
When looking back on it now I couldn’t find you amongst the wreckage.
I know what I need to do now.
And it breaks my heart that you’re not apart of it.
But I need to feel alive.
It breaks my heart.
I won't settle being just another statistic.
I just wish that you could understand it.
I just wish you could understand.
(Chorus)
You're too afraid to risk what’s known for the unfamiliar.
But great men only exist for the risks they've taken.
Choices that I’ve made built up who I am today
Instead of giving in I have been awakened
