Potential Lyrics - Craig's Brother

Hey there, Mr. Personality 

Was everybody wrong to think 

That you would have 

The world on it's knees 

Or perhaps we were too blind to see 

That all your grace would fall to entropy 

Leaving only fear and apathy 

And useless dreams 

And the shadows that you cast 

So tall on the wall of possibility 

Grow closer to infinity 

With every word that goes unsaid 

'Cause you could build your house of gold 

If you could only find a place to start 

But for now there's just a question mark 

Hanging on your head 

'Cause you could be the best there ever was 

'Cause you could be the best there ever was 

'Cause you could be the best there ever was 

But you won't move 'cause you're to scared 

Potential shines so bright when never dared 

And I never thought I'd find you 

Gagged and bound by mediocrity 

Denying who you want to be 

How did your standards get so low? 

Or are you still content hang your feat 

In the pool of opportunity 

When everyone has yet to see 

A single thing to show 

Hey, Mr. World at your feet 

Did you finally accept defeat? 

Or was your bark 

More than your bite 

When you wake up from your dream 

To find your smile has lost it's gleam 

Well, maybe then 

You'll see the light 

'Cause you could be the best there ever was 

'Cause you could be the best there ever was 

'Cause you could be the best there ever was 

But nothing's gained when nothing's shared 

Potential shines so bright when never dared 

So break those chains and take the world 

It's yours to claim, or are you still afraid 

To take some value from those 

Impotent dilapidated aspirations
