Pencil Marks And Door Frames Lyrics - On My Honor

I can't separate reality from fact 

Or read people any better that a sign on my own back 

Trust is damaged, confidence is cracked 

And has been 

Long enough 

For everyone 

To mention it 

Remember when we though 

Anyone could be what they wanted to be? 

When did my own advice stop making sense to me? 

As if it ever did 

But what about every awkward kid 

That I said the same to? 

Now what do they do? 

Measuring up 

Is getting me down 

So I've got to stop 

If this is the wish that I've been granted 

How can I 

Ask for more? 

The advice I have to give 

Is neither encouraging 

Or constructive 

So what's the point in that? 

What's the point in that? 

I can hear the kids two booths away 

Stir their coffee cups and say, 

"When I turn 21..." 

We're all so wrapped up 

In what's to come 

Yeah, it's hard when 

All I ever wanted was to make a difference 

Oh so hard, when 

All I ever wanted was to make a difference 

Measuring up 

Is getting me down 

So I've got to stop 

If this is the wish that I've been granted 

How can I 

Ask for more?
