NOT THE MAN EMO

Verse 1: I had big dreams, when I was just a kid, Thought I'd be someone, thought I'd make my mark, I did. But life had other plans, it took me for a spin, (Oh, it took me) Now I'm just a shadow, of the man I could have been. (Could have been) Chorus: I'm not the man I wanted to be, (No, I'm not) Letting people down, it's plain to see. (Plain to see) But I'm trying to find my way, trying to find my light, (Find my light) In the darkness of my past, I'll keep up the fight. (Keep up the fight) Verse 2: I made promises, that I couldn't keep, (Couldn't keep) Left a trail of broken hearts, buried in my sleep. (In my sleep) I let down the ones, who believed in me, (Believed in me) Now I'm just a drifter, lost at sea. (Lost at sea) Chorus: I'm not the man I wanted to be, (No, I'm not) Letting people down, it's plain to see. (Plain to see) But I'm trying to find my way, trying to find my light, (Find my light) In the darkness of my past, I'll keep up the fight. (Keep up the fight) Bridge: But even in the wreckage, there's a glimmer of hope, (Hope's still there) In the ashes of my mistakes, I'll learn to cope. (Learn to cope) With every step I take, I'll leave the past behind, (Past behind) In the pursuit of happiness, I'll find my peace of mind. (Peace of mind) Verse 3: So I'll keep on walking, down this winding road, (Keep on walking) Though the path is rough, and the journey's slowed. (Journey's slowed) I'll keep on searching, for that silver lining, (Silver lining) In the depths of my soul, I'll keep on shining. (Keep on shining)
