lyrics

Take these arms, these legs, they are broken
This love, it’s too much, I am frozen
I don’t know if I have what it takes
To be chosen

I arose with wings I am flightless
Someone’s carving a statue in my likeness
I will never live up to this portrait, I’m just posing
I don’t know if I have what it takes
To be chosen

Give me a sign, a photo, a map, something to go by
How am I supposed to know what I’m supposed to look like
I leaving dust running fast like I’ve always done, from everyone
Stepping up to no battles, no I never win
Laces undone, I’m always falling
Dodging my own heart like a bullet full of failure and sin
I don’t know if I have what it takes
To be chosen

I am tired and worn thin from
Healing wounds inflicted by none other than my own scorn
I am at war and I am alone
I take off before the horn is blown
I hear all the doors on their hinges and now for some reason
I’m scared of all of them closing
Still I don’t know if I have what it takes to be chosen
To be chosen
