Even Though


All the world can brag over my defeat
Even though I came to this life unseen
Freshly cut and dried from a plastic bin
With this helpless pout I'd just like to win

Even though I am
All that I can eat

Hold my spot and wait till I find a seat
All the world has got to decide for me
I won't win this race but I've got to see
If there's only one perfect place to fill

Even though I am
Even though I see

I'll be late today, I need time to kill
With this swollen mind I am just too real
Woven in my web of some fake ass silk
Desperate for a gust of supportive wind

Even though I am
Even though I see

These lies are the only thing
That I listen to
And I thought that you could believe in me
And I think you should

Hold my tongue in place, I can feel it split
Through the weight of lies I cannot repeat
Deeper in my soul there's a light I feel
But it's dark as fuck when I take a peek

Even though I am
All that I can dream

These lies are the only thing
That I listen to
And I thought that you could believe in me
And I think you should

Deep within myself there's a world I fear
Filled with buried lies and forgotten tears
Even though I'm blind to this sort of things
You can be my eyes, I can be your

Deep within myself I could not believe
How a single choice shaped so much my will
Even though I live and I can still breathe
Will you be my lungs while I shout at...

Sitting in this chair with a dim light lit
Reading through the lines of the life I lived
I can see the road I have failed to pick
Longer, wider but with no room for wit

I just thought I am
All that I can
