Role Models

Take deep breaths, clear your mind
Who says life needs to be timed?
It’s easy, believe me
Live life or go through it blind
Locked up, she studied alone
Kept still when no one was home
The things that she could have grown
The life she now wish she owned
She learned that knock on her door
Lost hopes addressed to this girl
How did she end up that way?
Remember that fateful day?
Youth is a beautiful thing
You take the hit, I’ll take the blame
Remember that fateful day?
Nor do I, they’re all the same
Take deep breaths, clear your mind
Who says life needs to be timed?
It’s easy, let me be me
Live life or go through it blind
For every step that you take
Pretend that things are okay
It’ll all pay off in the end
One rule, she’d always pretend
Youth is a beautiful thing
You take the hit, I’ll take the blame
Remember that fateful day?
Nor do I, they’re all the same
Take deep breaths, clear your mind
Who says life needs to be timed?
It’s easy, let me be me
Live life or go through it blind
Cause I’ve been your best chance
To get you out of this place
And I’m told it’s okay to second guess your old ways
So think twice, when you’re here
Bad dreams seem to reappear
If you’re lost, then I’m found
You’ll wear down in this ghost town
Take deep breaths, clear your mind
Who says life needs to be timed?
It’s easy, let me be me
Live life or go through it blind
