Undeserving

Running from my mind keeps me from my bed at night Sirens from my window down the road to number nine It's frightening what the mind can start to think at half past nine Like, what's this funny feeling in this little soul of mine? So I put my faith in patience and pursued a worthy cause The innocence was blinding, but it put us on this course And how are we deserving? And who the hell am I? The way my life has changed, it used to pass me by Wait for me Baby, I'm yours Wait and see, what could have been ours Words they fail me, but no more Nothing feels the same, and everything has changed Life is very different now, don't know if I'm the same But I think I've found my purpose And I've found my lock and key I've found a sacred place now, just for you and me And why now does it feel so strange that I should feel content? Is this my burden? Is this what she meant? The feeling of acceptance overwhelming, say the least The feeling that I get at how you look at me And I did this for my family, but I've gained so much more The happiness you've given me must be the feeling in my soul Wait for me Baby, I'm yours Wait and see, what could have been ours Words they fail me, I've had enough Now I don't feel peculiar in the only sense I know Whatever is inside me, I need to let it go And I'll not make excuses and I won't tell no lies Stay true to myself, look me in the eyes The ones that say they love you And the ones that say you're good The ones that say I'm bad, they all misunderstood Why is all this happening to a little soul like mine? It doesn't seem fair, and it doesn't sit right And I once was a stranger, a pauper, nothing more Before you all found me, I was a broken soul And if it should all come crumbling down I can safely say you've made me happy now The people that I've met and the ones I loved before The ones along the way, oh so many more I can safely say now that I have no regrets I'm happy with myself and all the friends that I have met All the places that we're going, all the things that we will do I'm just so damn happy that I'm doing them with you I used to be so angry, confused and afraid I'd take it out on loved ones or anyone it takes Now it don't seem scary, I don't feel so insecure I'm waking up in silence, my demons at the door Wait for me Baby, I'm yours Wait and see, what would have been ours Words they fail me, I'm hanging on La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la, la-la-la La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la La-la-la, la-la-la-la Running from my mind keeps me from my bed at night The sirens from my window down the road to number nine It's frightening what the mind can start to think at half past nine Like, what's this funny feeling in this little soul of mine?
