Place to Start (Deck of Hearts Remix)
[Verse]
I don't have a leg to stand on
Spinning like a whirlwind, nothing to land on
Came so far, never thought it'd be done now
Stuck in a holding pattern, waiting to come down, oh
Did somebody else define me?
Can I put the past behind me?
Do I even have a decision?
Feeling like I'm living in a story already written
Am I part of a vision made by somebody else?
Pointing fingers at villains but I'm the villain myself
Am I out of conviction with no wind in the sail?
And too focused on the end and simply ready to fail

[Hook]
'Cause I'm tired of the fear that I can't control this
I'm tired of feeling like every next step's hopeless
I'm tired of being scared what I build might break apart
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start
Oh, oh
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start
Oh, oh

[Drop]
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to st-
(I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start)
[Verse]
I don't have a leg to stand on
Spinning like a whirlwind, nothing to land on
Came so far, never thought it'd be done now (Now, now, now)
Stuck in a holding pattern, waiting to come down, oh
Did somebody else define me?
Can I put the past behind me?
Do I even have a decision?
Feeling like I'm living in a story already written
Am I part of a vision made by somebody else?
Pointing fingers at villains but I'm the villain myself
Am I out of conviction with no wind in the sail?
And too focused on the end and simply ready to fail

[Hook]
'Cause I'm tired of the fear that I can't control this
I'm tired of feeling like every next step's hopeless
I'm tired of being scared what I build might break apart
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to st-

[Drop]
(I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start)

[Outro]
Oh, oh
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start
Oh, oh
