It's A Long Shot

by Zelena Hull

/

about

A song about trying your best to achieve your dreams. Within there are two dueling voices conveying negative and positive emotions. It's a song of exhaustion and hope.

lyrics

Oh It’s A Long Shot, It’s far away, far away
Picking up scraps
But I know, But I know, But I know, But I know
Oh It’s A Long Shot, It’s far away
I might not reach it in any place and time (day)
(I tried)
There are echos in my head telling me things
(Your not good enough)
It’s not craziness, it’s emptiness
(You can’t do it)
It’s a little, a little complicated now
Oh we’ve had all these voices telling us otherwise
(There’s no way out)
All we’ve had
(There’s nothing better for you)
All the things the mistakes we’ve made
Dwell on the negative, dwell on the things you messed up
Dwell on the pain, Dwell on all the things you failed in the end, failed in the end
Oh It’s A Long Shot, It’s far away
All I’ve ever wanted was to walk up those steps one day
(It’s a long shot)
To finally feel success, to feel worthiness, to feel it all, to feel the world
All I’ve worked for, you could say, you could say it’s a lot more
(Picking up scraps)
Years hours minutes days whatever it takes there’s no praise
(You try your best with what you have)
You want someone to notice what you’ve done, in a sea of accomplishments
Can’t escape this feeling of not being appreciated
All of it is a momentary sadness, all of it is only temporary
It’s a long shot, sallow your pride
It’s far away, sallow your pain
Suck it up once again
Far away, It’s a long shot, it’s a long shot, It’s a long shot
For the longest time, for the longest days, never seen an once of praise, of praise,
Can’t expect, can’t expect anything
It’s a long shot, It’s a long time
It’s far away, It’s been a long day
Picking up scraps
It’s been a long pain, It’s been a long work
We’ve tried, It’s been hurting, I’m jarredI can feel jaded as much as I want
But when your in a sea, in a sea, you can’t breathe
It’s a long shot, It’s a long shot
For the longest time
It’s A Long Shot, It’s far away,
I don’t have to pick up scraps
It’s a long shot, it’s far away
