lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let's cheers to this
Hoping we could amount to something more
I just wanna make a difference
I think I found my purpose
Listening to the song that Hayley wrote
This paper and pen is all I know

[Chorus]
I hate being at a standstill
My body's stagnant, my mind is somewhere else
My heart beats for this
I wanna get far
All that I am is a kid with a guitar dreaming at night
How can I get to the top if I'm afraid of heights?

[Verse 2]
I feel trapped in my brain
Even though I have this whole life ahead of me
Is any of this real
Cause all I feel is anxiety
I forced my hand and now I'm out
Without any direction
I've been so lost

[Chorus]
I hate being at a standstill
My body's stagnant, my mind is somewhere else
My heart beats for this
I wanna get far
All that I am is a kid with a guitar dreaming at night
How can I get to the top if I'm afraid of heights?

[Bridge]
This is just the beginning
I sit here writing stupid songs
That make me feel less lost
This is just the beginning
I sit here and I sing along
You make me feel unlost

[Outro]
This is just the beginning
