Gather Up Your Nerve

You took the time to tell yourself
Over and over again
What good things you’re not
You lived a life convincing yourself
Time and time and time again
I don’t have a shot
You surround yourself with followers
Year after year after year
That help connect those dots
You took the time to tell yourself
Over and over again
What good things you’re not
You lived a life convincing yourself
Time and time and time again
I don’t have a shot
You surround yourself with followers
Year after year after year
That help connect those dots
Are you tired of it yet now?
Are you ready to go get
What you deserve?
Come gather up your nerve
In a state of steady waking sleep
Dreaming daily on your feet
Questioning what’s real
In a maze of constant confusion
Turning, turning left to right
Fear you can’t conceal
Reaching for that noose around your neck
Tighter, tighter not today
You finally feel
You are tired of it now
You are ready to go get
What you deserve
Come gather up your nerve
Come gather up your nerve
Come gather up your nerve
