This is the mess I’ve made
It’s time I stand and take the blame
I wanted to do things my way
And now I’m left here in my shame
And it would be an understatement
To admit I’m feeling pathetic
But I guess I can find the light in the fact
I think I finally get it

Woah, woah
Things aren’t always what they seem to be
Woah---oh, oh, woah--
Open your eyes and you will start to see
You’re making a mountain from a piece of sand
Making an ocean from a drop in your hand
Let your guard down
And you will find out
You can breathe free; rest easy
Things aren’t always what they seem

And I have caused this pain
It’s time I stand and take the blame
I wanted things to go all my way
And now I’m left with nothing to say
And it would be an understatement
To say I’m feeling pathetic
But I guess I can find light in the fact
I think I finally get it

Woah, woah
Things aren’t always what they seem to be
Woah---oh, oh, woah--
Open your eyes and you will start to see
You’re making a mountain from a piece of sand
Making an ocean from a drop in your hand
Let your guard down
And you will find out
You can breathe free; rest easy
Things aren’t always what they seem
