lyrics

Lend me a hand
Tell me who I am
The one who is primed to dig their head out of the sand

A climber of tiers
Someone without fears
Maybe a man made out of smoke and mirrors

I can be any kind of person those little voices could think I am
Dance around in a conversation and never mention the master plan
Takin' pills with a grain of salt, I'll entertain the helping hands
I can be any kind of person you could think I am

A company man
Some guy in a band
Whatever you see in me will be my new sham

So throw me a line
and I'll throw you mine
The jack of no trade is a master of biding time

I can be any kind of person those little voices could think I am
Dance around in a conversation and never mention the master plan
Takin' pills with a grain of salt, I'll entertain the helping hands
I can be any kind of person you could think I am

I know change is healthy
But something in me cringes when it's closing in
Like a defense mechanism
Into the the unknown
The helping hands push and pull me from the comfort zone
With expectations I can fake but never own

I can be any kind of person those little voices could think I am
Dance around in a conversation and never mention the master plan
Takin' pills with a grain of salt, I'll entertain the helping hands
I can be any kind of person you could think I am
