Why no one will help me 
I am too dumb I am too smart 
They'll not understand me 
I am lonely 
They'll hate me 
And there is not enough time 
It's too hard to help me 
And god wants me to work 
No resting no lazy 

[Chorus]
These excuses how they served me so well 
They've kept me safe 
They've kept me stoic 
They've kept me locked in my own cell 

I'm too far from home 
It takes far too much energy 
And I cannot afford to 
No one will ever see me 

[Chorus]

These excuses how they're so familiar 
They've kept me small 
They've kept me blocked 
They've kept me safe inside my shell 

Bringing this into the light 
Shakes their foundation 
And it clears my side 
Now my imagination 
Is the only thing that limits 
The bar that is raised to the heights 

No one can have it all see 
I have to they want me to 
And I can't let them down 
I'll never be happy 

[Chorus]

These excuses how they're so familiar 
They've kept me small 
They've kept me stoic 
They've kept me locked inside my cell
