How could I place my trust in a world that has so often let me down?
We live our lives based upon the pointless pursuit of perfection,
I'm giving up on giving respect to those who don't respect themselves.
I've learned the hard way that there is no easy way to learn
and it's impossible to satisfy every one.
I could care less if you can't stand the sound of my voice.
I'll still scream at the top of my lungs.
All I see are limits and boundaries keeping me from who I want to be.
When it seems to make more sense to take the easy way out
that's when I know I'm doing the right thing.
Nothing could be worse than looking back
and realizing I have not left a trail to follow,
I'd like to think that I set a good example
but I find myself let down by my actions.
