"So Far..."

I’ve spent my life drifting aimlessly
I never had to worry about danger
I was always safe
I made sure there was a safety net
I would have never thought to fly without lines
I was never brave
I always kept someone close to me
I never ventured out in the darkness alone
Just one step behind
It was always easier this way
to go through my life always watching your back
So you could fall first

So far I’ve taken care of you
Seen you succeed instead of me
So far I’ve never been alone
Always had someone by my side
So far I’ve always had a hand
To make sure I never went wrong

Maybe I need to be alone

I have always taken your advice
Even if my mind told me that you were wrong
So you could be blamed
One day I thought I’d go on my own
But I only replaced you with some one else
I can’t be alone

So far I’ve taken care of you
Seen you succeed instead of me
So far I’ve never been alone
Always had someone by my side
So far I’ve always had a hand
To make sure I never went wrong

Maybe I need to be alone
