Having nowhere else to go

He was lonely, she was cold

Whenever they went out

It seemed as though the world began to grow
                            
The two they both had not felt big enough
                              
to take on something of their own
              
And they kept moving along, singing a song
                         
a sad song, of how they'd never learn

and they'd never know
     
To try
             
They've been paralyzed by fearful eyes
                
And realize you can move along

Write your own song
                      
And be on your way
                      
He had always dreamed to change

The world around him,
   
Rearrange the mess
                                        
Because through his eyes it all was beautiful
                   
But not to all the rest
                      
He had so much to say, he had so much to show
                  
But he kept moving along, singing a song
                       
a sad song, of how he'd never learn

and he'd never know
     
To try 
          
He'd been paralyzed by fearful eyes
                
And realize you can move along

Write your own song
                      
And be on your way
              
She was unsure of many things
                                 
But disregarding all the others, she loved to sing
             
But she was too scared to fail
    
Too scared to give it a go
             
And she kept moving along, singing a song
                        
A sad song, of how she'd never learn

And she'd never know
      
To try 
           
She'd been paralyzed by fearful eyes
                
And realize you can move along

Write your own song

And be on your way
          
So I'll stop running away
                                                
If you start learning to stay and speak your mind
              
And I'll keep writing my songs
             
If you stop thinking you're wrong today.
      
And try
           
We've been paralyzed by fearful eyes
                
And realize you can move along

Write your own song
                        
And be on your way
      
So try
           
We've been paralyzed by fearful eyes
                
And realize you can move along

Write your own song
              
And be on your way
