I Was Told lyrics

I was told I should never let my dreams wander too high...too wild
I was sold on the notion I'd bump my head on the sky,
Make it black and blue
Let me crash and let me burn
Let me hope and let me learn
And I might go farther, farther
I may crash and I may burn,
A spectacle that they may spurn
Or I might go farther than they know
I was led to believe that disappointment
Could be my worst enemy
So I was bled every drop of blood
That made me want to try
Spirit left for dead
I tried to crash, I tried to burn
Look at what these efforts earned
I might go farther, farther
I may crash and I may burn
A spectacle that they may spurn
Or I might go farther than they know
I was told...
