Scripted from Potential by Daniels on the Rocks

At 3:05, I stepped out of your building
and into the pouring rain
I saw the streetlights, & even though it's wet and early,
they still shined the same

I could be like that
I could be ever glowing
make the night look bright as day
be a beacon of my hope
pure and with a purpose
up out of the way

Why's it hard to tell
the artist that the CD
kinda saved my life?
& I swear the skyline winked
as if the Music City knew just what's on my mind
I bet it happens all the time

It's a question of the ages
will this love save us
or will we end up even worse than we began?
My heart beats unfettered
ever since I played that record
and I'm waiting on my mind to do the same


Why's it hard to tell
the artist that the CD
kinda saved my life?
& I swear the skyline winked
as if the Music City knew just what's on my mind
I bet it happens all the time

I bet it happens all the time

I used to stay up late when I was in younger grades
I wrote the script and I thought that I was cool
I followed format rules, struggled with my dialogue
and at the crack of dawn, I wrote my title page
Now I stay up late, writing prose and songs and think
that I am
I'm getting something accomplished
something accomplished

I tell myself that I am gonna change the world
I'm doing this for me, for once, and not for some girl
I tell myself that I am gonna save the world

but
Why's it hard to tell
the artist that the CD
kinda saved my life?
& I swear the skyline winked
as if the Music City knew just what's on my mind
I bet it happens all the time
I bet it happens all the time

at 3:05, it's all the same
