Second Son Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Late at night when everyone has gone to sleep
I walk by moonlight up and down my street
These homes were filled with love
My neighborhood has changed

All my friends are leaving and it's all a blur
My mom, my dad, are older than they were
Everyone's different now
Why should I stay the same?

[Chorus]
See these shadows here
And feel the fear
It's hard to be someone

I am progress
I won't be passed by
I am the second son

[Verse 2]
I have those who love me, I shouldn't complain
Why do I feel guilt when I feel pain?
I've been so quiet for so long I'm gonna scream

I have thoughts, and sins, and feelings of my own
I'm not the boy that everyone has known
There's so much more, there's still so much
You haven't seen

[Chorus]
You will hear the sound
Walls crashing down
You'll see who I've become

I'm not Jesus Christ
I'm thawing ice
I am the second son

[Verse 3]
And so the mask is coming off that I have worn
Of someone else, cause I was never born
To live another life, I want to live my own

[Chorus]
See these shadows here
And feel the fear
It's hard to be someone

I am progress
I won't be denied
I am the second son

[Outro]
You will hear the sound
Walls crashing down
I am the second son
