Paroles de Maybe i missed the point

I know somebody whose life is tough
I help a little but it isn't enough
'cause i go spent money on stupid stuff
When i know he's struggling to stay above

And i have so many chances to be
The hero i believe inside of me
But i get busy and i get distracted
And i do nothing when i could have acted

I laid low when i could've stood high
I said nothing when i should've asked why
It's all something i might have done and i didn't
A chance to speak my truth and i held it inside

I'd like to believe i'm cool
Easy to love and hard to fool
But i know there's more i could've enjoyed
Sometimes i find myself thinking
Maybe i missed the point

So many in times i've turned down love
Stayed in the dark when i could've lit it up
But every time i did take a chance
It makes me happy when i'm looking back

I'm afraid my whole life feels like a joke
But i've been a master of mirrors and smoke
And i don't wanna live
I know i'm worried if i was you

I laid low when i could've stood high
I said nothing when i should've asked why
It's all something i might have done and i didn't
A chance to speak my truth and i held it inside

I'd like to believe i'm cool
Easy to love and hard to fool
But i know there's more i could've enjoyed
Sometimes i find myself thinking
Maybe i missed the point
