about

This is a demo I recorded at home to flesh out this song. playing a bit more with elec guitars...

lyrics

All the things I never was before
I’m gonna be this time around
I’m gonna be this time around
This time around

All the times I never opened up
The doors that I did find
I was Sure that I’d get lost
Was sure I’d loose my time
Afraid I would loose

Yeah I was afraid that I’d get lost
Afraid I’d loose my mind
Afraid that I’d get tossed
To the back of the line
Afraid that I’d get tossed
To the back of the line

When they say go
I’m gonna run
When they say go
I’ll be the one
The underdog The undeclared
Whose day has never come
Won’t be pushed won’t be scared
When I hear the starting gun

All the dangers I would walk along
In the danger I would play
The times I never talked I’d never say
All the things I’d never talk about
The things I’d never say
Weighing down my mind
Dragging me away
So far away

Yeah off into the wood
In the cover of the night
I could hear the music fade away
With the last bit of light
I could hear the music fade away
With the last bit of light

When they say go
I’m gonna run
When they say go
I’ll be the one
The underdog The undeclared
Whose day has never come
Won’t be pushed won’t be scared
When I hear the starting gun

I’m gonna run I’m gonna run
I’ll be the one I’ll be the one
