Don't you lose yourself over little things they said
They won't matter in five years' time
But when I look back at five years back, all I see is
Little things I tried to brush past
And I'm still surprised when I let myself down
When I close every door and see no way out
I open every door thinking there is so much more
I find it, I don't know what to do
And I promise I had good intentions
Intentions mean nothing alone
And I always ask the right questions
Words have a life of their own
Twenty years running away from home
Could only mean twenty more trying to find one
Promise I had good intentions
Intentions mean nothing alone
Don't you lose your head reading between the lines
Good things are never said out loud
If you could get a break living inside your mind
If you could see yourself through my eyes
And I'm still surprised when I let myself down
When I close every door and see no way out
I open every door thinking there is so much more
I find it, I don't know what to do
And I promise I had good intentions
Intentions mean nothing alone
And I always ask the right questions
Words have a life of their own
Twenty years running away from home
Could only mean twenty more trying to find one
Promise I had good intentions
Intentions mean nothing alone
