Zero Hour

(album: Better Luck Tomorrow - 2018)

My whole life!
I've been staring into the rearview
Forever doubting every step that I take
I spent so much time looking backwards
I missed everything happening right in front of my face
Another day, another week
Another year I've wasted on pointless self-hatred
Second guessing if I've got what it takes
And resenting the world for all my mistakes
(But I've bent too far to break)

(I might make it)
I keep telling myself I'm short selling myself
And I just might make it
(Chance I'll take it)
I keep telling myself I'm short selling myself
It's a chance I'll take
So I'll break down these walls I've built so tall
To hide myself from everyone else
But I've found out despite all doubt that I was born for this

With any other opportunity well let's face it I'd just waste it
I've thought this over half a thousand times
And my mind is made up, I know what I want
Ever since I've undertaken
This new sense of determination
I finally feel like I've got what it takes
To handle everything that life throws my way
This time I refuse to lose, I've made up my mind
I'm ready for whatever's coming
On my own two feet again

(I might make it)
I keep telling myself I'm short selling myself
And I just might make it
(Chance I'll take it)
I keep telling myself I'm short selling myself
It's a chance I'll take
So I'll break down these walls I've built so tall
To hide myself from everyone else
But I've found out despite all doubt that I was born for this

All along I've wondered
If I'll ever make it anywhere
But if I don't at least I'll know
I tried to make my life my own, yeah
On my own two feet again!

I keep telling myself I'm short selling myself
And I just might make it
I keep telling myself I'm short selling myself
And it's time to break down these walls I've built so tall
To hide myself from everyone else
But I've found out despite all doubt that I was born for so much more
I've never been so sure I know that I was born for this
