always feel this way

are these fireflies lighting up my night
fading in the dark sunlight
just there to use me as they like
for their own glory?

the hope i find in my fields of gold
grows weary tired and so old
at the oncoming of what i'm told
i'm not worthy

will i always feel this way

walkin' through the grass, dead and brown
envy's sacred breeding ground
wonderin' what it'd feel like if i found
someone who'd adore me

to turn this empty silhouette
into a man whom they'd regret
they left there at the dawn for dead
they're so misleading

will i always feel this way

seems the smiles that lead me down this road
washed out, fleeting, and so cold
couldn't get enough of chaining down my hope
but i'm still worthy

i won't always feel this way
though they've knocked me down today
they won't always be in my way
i won't always feel this way
