A collection of truths 
strategically placed 
a horde of mysteries and 
some fears faced 
 
a raging battle under 
calm and serene 
often saying what I think 
but not often what I mean 
 
I need to see 
reality so I 
know that it's not just a dream 
and I lay my cards out 
for everyone 
but I never am quite what I seem 
I hold back 
 
take hold of dares 
as though you're almost done 
as if it's the last thing that you'll ever do 
and I will always run because 
 
a misguided guide I am 
an ignorant lead 
I never know what I want 
but I'll tell you exactly what I need 
 
Verse 3 
 
and I see you smile 
and it makes me nervous 
and while I'm laughing the truth is 
I don't know how to do this 
 
i have no idea of what's okay 
no matter who you are 
but you'll never get to know 
because I'll never get that far
