Bound to Be - Homebound

Weary eyed and a helpless demeanour

A troubled mind with a pressure to find a

Clear sense of direction

Another lecture, another lesson

On what it is to live a life like this

To watch it flash before your eyes and wish

Things turned out the way they should

I’ve never felt this misunderstood

I’m bound to be a failure

That look in your eyes tells me you know that I’m right

But if I start giving in to pressure

I’ll just do the same, I’ll Let you down in another way

Trapped in this hourglass, I feel the sand beneath my feet

Act like there’s nothing wrong

Wait until the stress is gone

I’ll cross that bridge when I know we’ve come to it

I’m not sure but not right now

Leave me be and let me figure this one out

You are my voice of reason and not a force of nature

I know you’re looking out for me but I won’t cave in to pressure
