Be The Change

I know you want to see me cry
But I was tucked in without a lullaby
So the most you’ll get is a furrowed brow
Like a light contact and a wave good bye
I’ll be the change when I wanna be
Leave it unexplained how I act this way
Conclude my story with a degrading phrase
Because I never meant to be this way
I’ve come this far without a steering wheel
Refusing old requests to make my own dreams real
So now I waste my time just thinking of this perfect street
Where trees line the road and I’m in the drivers seat
I’ll be the change when I wanna be
Leave it unexplained how I act this way
Conclude my story with a degrading phrase
Because I never meant to be this way
