More Than What I Am

How many times have I sat here,

Waiting with my pen,

Trying to continue?

And the words that won’t come out

Find their way into my head

With the visions I see

When I close my eyes to dream

I can’t fly

And I can’t begin

Cuz I can’t be more than what I am

How can I rise

From this life that I’m in,

If I can’t be more than what I am?

How many hours have I lay here,

Trying to forget a world that still continues?

And each moment that’s slipped

From my life into a dream

Takes me further away

From the me that I have seen

I can’t fly

And I can’t begin

Cuz I can’t be more than what I am

How can I rise

From this life that I’m in,

If I can’t be more than what I am?

Give me truth and life with meaning

Give me true words that I believe, that I believe

(Singing, singing, wordless music, empty lullabies

Singing, singing, wordless music, empty lullabies)

I can’t fly

And I can’t begin

Cuz I can’t be more than what I am

How can I rise

From this life that I’m in,

If I can’t be more than what I am?
