Falter
I'm a statue by the water
Forever shaping up to dive
Forever pausing on the verge
Headstrong
Where has all that old courage gone
Just like a castle in the sand
I'm made in the shape of strength yet still i crumble
Headstrong
I always used to be so headstrong
But i lost it where did i go wrong?
All i seem to do is falter
Falter
Tip-toe'd the wrong way down a corridor of creaky boards
Is it me or did i hear a sound?
See a silhouette?
Maybe this could be the end?
Be headstrong
And taste it with a curious tongue
Cos staring at the little shards of checkered light through blurry fingers
It's all a part of this, a part of being alive
Headstrong
I always used to be so headstrong
Yeh I lost it where did I go wrong?
All I seem to do is falter
Headstrong
I always used to be so headstrong
But I lost it where did I go wrong?
All I seem to do is falter
