Jaune has feelings of guilt and dishonestly surrounding his sneaking into Beacon.
Dedicated to James Green for inspiring me to write this song.
Also dedicated to Alex Abrahams who introduced me to Breaking Pangaea which influenced the direction of the music of this song.
lyrics
VERSE 1:
They have such an advantage
Since I'm not naturally gifted
I'll fake it, and hopefully make it
Or die...one of the two I guess
PRE CHORUS 1:
What did I think when I planned this elaborate hoax?
Tied me in knots now it feels like I'm made up of ropes
Still can't believe that they let me inside of this school
I can't keep up with the pace they set, what do I do?
VERSE 2:
So now, I'm treading water
These friends are so far above me
Do I fit? Or do I cave into this mess?
One of the two I guess
PRE CHORUS 2:
I never dreamed that my destiny'd lead me to you
Something familiar, but if I just told you the truth
Friends are like shadows, they could disappear with the moon
Rising above me, so much that I've built up to lose
CHORUS 2:
I don't belong here, and I don't deserve this
And not in a good way, like I'm way above this
I don't belong here, but I'm seeking purpose
I'm finding my balance, and she's taking notice
VERSE 3:
She is, quietly brilliant
She wants to help me regardless
Do I need, to be a hero or leave?
What is it I believe?
PRE CHORUS 3:
I've always felt like my honestly set me apart
Now I'm a liar and it's weighing down hard on my heart
She knows the truth and she's keeping it close to her chest
Thankful for her, now I see that I'm very much blessed
CHORUS 2:
I don't belong here, and I don't deserve this
And not in a good way, like I'm way above this
I don't belong here, but I'm seeking purpose
I'm finding my balance, and I hope they don't notice
BRIDGE:
I don't, I don't belong here
And I don't, I don't deserve this
