Standard (EADGBE)

Twenty years of pushing pens of up the stairs and down again

Should've learned to style my hair

 So I could never sleep at night, I've never mastered eating right

Distracted by the skin I wear

 And I'm alive in here somewhere

 Cause I can feel me twistin'

I'm so far beyond my years

 So don't be fooled by today

 Hey please, just believe in me

Don't lose your hope so easily

 Because passing through the eye of a needle

 Isn't as easy as it sounds for those like me ---- yeah yeah

Nothing short of miracles can save a small and dying world

 That offers no apologies

 To lay their hopes and dreams asleep but pray the Lord their goal to keep

 But I still got a soul in me

 And old protects ability and illusions of grandeur

I once was blind but now I see

 They got everything for me but grace

 Hey please, just believe in me

Don't lose your hope so easily

 Because passing through the eye of a needle

 Isn't as easy as it sounds for those like me ---- yeah yeah

 And I'm alive in here somewhere

 Cause I can feel me twistin'

I'm so far beyond my years

 So don't be fooled by today

 Hey please, just believe in me

Don't lose your hope so easily

 Because passing through the eye of a needle

 Isn't as easy as it sounds for those like me ---- yeah yeah
