From the album A Simple Transmission
Lyrics
Verse 1:
Awake and thinking
Restless and drinking
Hopeful and seemingly fine
Who am I kidding?
Who am I trying to fool?
I'm no spokesman
Can't even convince you
Chorus:
What am I trying to prove?
Is this really mine to choose?
Verse 2:
Scratch my name into the wall
Below, here lies the king
Capable of so much
But I can't do anything
All my life
It seems I never tried
But I'll push myself upon this
Dream until its finally mine
Chorus:
What am I trying to prove?
Is this really mine to choose?
What am I trying to prove?
Is this really mine to choose?
Bridge:
Reach out to feel your hand
Reach in and fill my soul
Reaching for myself
But he's not there anymore
Chorus:
What am I trying to prove?
Is this really mine to choose?
What am I trying to prove?
Is this really mine to choose?
