Under Par — текст песни (Thrice)

You set the bar too high, you`re expectations have become my failure / a shell you see so shallow but deep inside, my heart beats just the same as yours / the same blood through these clean veins, can`t you see that I`m in pain / it seems my life is always under par / what can i say to change your mind about what I am / other can see what is hidden from your sight / a kid with courage and heart and his eyes open wide / inner beauty and a bright light / my focus is not yours, I set my sights on new horizons and let my soul have scope / can`t you see that I have my own dreams, and though they`re not the same as yours / they hold value to me, tell me why can`t you see / I`m not the means to mend your past regrets / judged for how I look, not for the good that I have done / I try the best I can, but it seems that I`m not the perfect son / shaped by god, and my volition, and the seeds that you have sown, but I ask you once again, when does my life become my own?
