lyrics

It started out as a joke
Though was it really ever that inside my heart
It almost never awoke
How many times did I nearly quit before the start
Saw people come and go
But eventually the good ones started to stay
And now I'll always know
What it's like to try your best and fail

And everybody wrote us off
But they might have spoken just a little bit too soon
We're strong and we're tough, oh

And we almost made it this time
To the chance to almost win
And we never crossed the line
But maybe that's a good thing

To think that I would have known
That you would be the one that's in my eyes
It's not a stretch to guess
But I didn't think it till I realized
That it's far too late
To go back to where my mind was when we met
And now I'm fighting myself
Trying to remember, trying to forget

And now I'm stuck between two rocks
They're pulling me apart but I know that they're both pulling me down
I gotta let myself free

And I almost made it this time
To almost creating a new mess
And I never spoke my mind
But maybe that's for the best
