Common mistake

Don’t know where you are
I’ve traveled so far
I just want you to see
What you once saw in me
I know it’s been long
In this time I’ve grown strong
I just want you to see
What you once saw in me
Will it ever happen?
It’s in your face and it’s all around
If it were up to me
I would turn my world upside down

It’s a common mistake
That everyone makes
You’re trying to figure out why you ever left this place
It’s a common mistake
That everyone makes
Well who would have known?
That in this place
You’re still trying to figure out why you left alone

This time I’m going after
Everything that I’ve ever wanted
This time I’ll show you what I can become
This time I’m going after
Everything that I’ve ever wanted
This time I’ll show you what I can become Things aren’t so bad
They’re just harder until they get better
Things aren’t so sad
They’re just lighter then heavier
Things aren’t so bad
They’re just harder until they get better
Things aren’t so sad
They’re just lighter then heavier than ever

It’s a common mistake
That everyone makes

-no, no-
It’s a common mistake

This time I’m going after
Everything that I’ve ever wanted
This time I’ll show you what I can become
-and when I’m done-
This time I’m going after
Everything that I’ve ever wanted
This time I’ll show you what I can become Things aren’t so bad
They’re just harder until they get better
Things aren’t so sad
They’re just lighter then heavier
Things aren’t so bad
They’re just harder until they get better
Things aren’t so sad
They’re just lighter then heavier than ever
