Waiting On My Rocket

from Wasting Time by Daniel McConeghy

/

lyrics

I was born by man but raised by melody
Something mom and dad can’t trust
Because it’s something they can’t see

And all I’m meant to be they didn’t want for me
Drywall boxed me up until I’d had enough

And all these lines they forced on me
I’m finding my way through
I’m doing everything I can
And I swear I’ll get there soon

I’m done waiting on my rocket to come
I think it’s time that I found my own way up
And I can’t wait to feel the stratosphere
Sweet air in my lungs
Cause once I breathe it in you know
I’ll never come back down

I’m a boy with a bad sense of direction
And I hate doing what I’m told
I’m a man who can see his destination
And all this traffic’s getting old

And all these lines they forced on me
I’m finding my way through
I’m doing everything I can
And I swear I’ll get there soon

I’m done waiting on my rocket to come
I think it’s time that I found my own way up
And I can’t wait to feel the stratosphere
Sweet air in my lungs
Cause once I breathe it in you know
I’ll never come back down

They said you’ll never make it
Find a fall back
Hang up your numbers, boy
They’ll never call back
And I was waiting on one chance
To get my upper hand
To make them understand

Cuz I’m done waiting on my rocket to come
I think it’s time that I found my own way up
And I can’t wait to feel the stratosphere
Sweet air in my lungs
Cause once I breathe it in you know
I’ll never come back down
