MUSIC FOR SALE

You call me childish
But I still feel my heartbeat
You try to fade me
But I refuse to disappear

You treat my dreams like nothing
You hope I’ll break and give them up
You never look at your living
You wander empty calling it enough
I’m watching stars
You never see me rising high
You miss my growth
Still I keep standing through your lies

If you knew life
You’d see you never lived at all
CHORUS
You break my dreams
But you can’t touch the fire in me
You pull me down
But I won’t fall the way you bleed
I rise in light
A different rhythm in my heartbeat
I grow in sound
My spirit lifts where yours retreats
I shine above
Your fading shadows underneath
I stand in truth
My voice is louder than your deceit
I breathe my flame
And every spark becomes my lead
I rise again
In every place you couldn’t reach

You hide your losses
By tearing down the dreams you fear
You dim their light
So they collapse the way you did for years
You push them hard
To make them quit before they try
You keep them small
The way you chose to stay inside

You walk like nothing
You’ll never touch the light I keep
You live without meaning
I’ll never learn from what you teach
You’re just a seed
That never saw the sun to reach
I grow a tree
My dreams are branches meant to speak
I trust myself
My spirit rises past your reach
CHORUS
You break my dreams
But you can’t touch the fire in me
You pull me down
But I won’t fall the way you bleed
I rise in light
A different rhythm in my heartbeat
I grow in sound
My spirit lifts where yours retreats
I shine above
Your fading shadows underneath
I stand in truth
My voice is louder than your deceit
I breathe my flame
And every spark becomes my lead
I rise again
In every place you couldn’t reach

I shine where you can’t follow
I breathe in every dream I grow
