[Intro]
In the mirror, I see a familiar face,
Lines of worry, a heart that’s lost its place.
Time’s a river, flowing fast and wide,
I wish for change, but it runs and slides.
[Verse 1]
I’ve given my heart to every hand I’ve held,
Sewn my spirit to others, oh, I’ve excelled.
But now I’m broken, and it feels so strange,
Wishing I could rewrite, spin around, change.
[Pre-Chorus]
Fingers tapped on keys, I tried to fit the mold,
A hero in their stories, brave and bold.
But with every smile, I felt a piece of me die,
Searching for the answer, but wonder why.
[Chorus]
I just want to get it right,
Find the man who lives inside.
With every fall, I rise and fight,
Help me chase the shadowed light.
Time's a thief, but I’ll break free,
In this life, I want to be me.
[Verse 2]
I wore their masks and played their parts,
Left my own dreams, shattering my heart.
I look for solace in laughter and song,
Yet deep inside I know I’ve played them wrong.
[Pre-Chorus]
I reach for guidance in the night,
A whisper, a hand to hold me tight.
When will my journey turn to flight?
In this endless search to find my light.
[Chorus]
I just want to get it right,
Find the man who lives inside.
With every fall, I rise and fight,
Help me chase the shadowed light.
Time's a thief, but I’ll break free,
In this life, I want to be me.
[Bridge]
Grains of sand in the hourglass,
Moments I’ve lost, will they ever pass?
I wish for a hand, to show me the way,
To embrace the dawn, not run from the day.
[Chorus]
I just want to get it right,
Find the man who lives inside.
With every fall, I rise and fight,
Help me chase the shadowed light.
Time's a thief, but I’ll break free,
In this life, I want to be me.
[Outro]
So here I stand with my heart laid bare,
A plea for help, a wish in the air.
With open arms, I’ll face the night,
I’m learning how to finally get it right.
