Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm not great and I hate that I can't say it
So I fake it until the day I make it
Look to me and I'll answer all your questions
Don't look around or they'll know that you're distracted
[Verse 2]
I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it
Amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing
I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it
It's only a matter of time
[Verse 3]
How long will it take for my silence to break?
'Cause it's holding me down while its hands cover both of my eyes
It's only a matter of time
I long for a day I can look at my face
Without seeing the pain, try to hide all that I've sacrificed
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
[Verse 4]
Packed my bags like I'm on my way to Heaven
It's like I'm marching down that road to see him
I'm still a hero even though I'm failing
I was flying so high but now I'm collapsing
[Verse 5]
I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it
Amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing
I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it
It's only a matter of time
[Verse 6]
How long will it take for my silence to break?
'Cause it's holding me down while its hands cover both of my eyes
It's only a matter of time
I long for a day I can look at my face
Without seeing the pain, try to hide all that I've sacrificed
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
[Verse 7]
Paradise won't kill me, no
So wake me up and we'll see
Paradise won't kill me, no
Wake me up and we'll see
It's only a matter of time
[Verse 8]
How long will it take for my silence to break?
'Cause it's holding me down while its hands cover both of my eyes
It's only a matter of time
I long for a day I can look at my face
Without seeing the pain, try to hide all that I've sacrificed
It's only a matter of time
It's only a matter of time
