Time Will Tell

So you want to be a fireman
So you want to be a cop
I don't know in the end
I was unsure so I stopped
To be so confused it hurts
And I feel way to lost
After high school I'm not sure
So I continued at the cost
Of failing in the end
I just cant bend

So in this miserable existence
I found a shred of light
It was here not in the distance
Because I found something worth a fight
I don't know how i was so blind
You were right there
Always warm and kind
So my heart I'll share

Possibly I'll find
What I want to be
Mabye in time
But yet it really doesn't matter to me
Because i know
That all I want to do
Is to show
That I truly love you
