Starting Line

Nobody knows my name

Did I melt into these walls I've made

I did everything I thought was right

Got my stapler, got my shirt and tie

Set me up to zone out pushing paper

Slamming the stapler

Punching the clock until five

Holding out to get up to the stage

Now I'm turning the page

Feel the rush in my veins

Stepping into the light

I've been kicking my feet on the starting line

Now I'm chasing a feeling

Showing up to the stage, let the crowd decide

I've been working my game in a brand new light

Now I'm breaking the ceiling

I'm done chasing a dream from the starting line

Never gonna be a perfect time

To let go of all my safety lines

Looking down into the drop below

Nothing to catch me will I ever know

Set me up to burn out, I'll be thriving

No money, surviving on love for the thrill of it all

Holding out for the taste of a secret I'm keeping, believe me

Can't keep still on the edge of my seat

I've been kicking my feet on the starting line

Now I'm chasing a feeling

Showing up to the stage, let the crowd decide

I've been working my game in a brand new light

Now I'm breaking the ceiling

I'm done chasing a dream from the starting line

I've been patient

I've been waiting

I've been here on the starting line

I've been patient

I've been waiting

I've been here on the...

I've kicking my feet on the starting line

Now I'm chasing a feeling

Showing up to the stage, let the crowd decide

I've been working my game in a brand new light

Now I'm breaking the ceiling

I'm done chasing a dream from the starting line
