lyrics

It's been awhile since I drove this terrain
Back home from college but it still feels the same
It must be the mountains that stir the thoughts in my brain
'Cause I'm approaching Roanoke feeling semi-insane
A slave to emotion with only myself to blame

I painted a portrait in the back of my mind
Of my ideal girl but she never came by
I grew tired of searching and I lived my life blind
Now I'm learning the hard way being punished with time
Yeah, I'm battling lonely but I got someone in mind

Someone has healed me in Knoxville, Tennessee
and I'm suddenly feeling fine

I've housed a heart that is hungry indeed
and I cannot stop it's will to succeed
It's true that it's boldness can be a burden to me
and I live by faith and a calm certainty
Yeah, you can have love, I own the rights to belief

I know it sounds crazy and I do apologize
but I don't like hearts in disguise
You are the portrait that I did define

I think my happiness is from learning that you exist
Now I can take the risk on my mind
instead of wasting my time
instead of wasting my time
