words and patterns

 day dreaming of a future that will never come because i've been standing here far too long day dreaming of a future that will never come

I don't know why I don't know what it is But I've given up On trying to win The power was in me all along I choose surrender That's my contribution

The scent of rust and steel Been playing on these strings too long The pain and the stiffness Whenever I try to play along In slowly losing the rhythm Cuz I haven't heard the beat in so long Is it a person or is it just a song
