Starting Line

[Verse 1]
Nobody knows my name
Did  I melt into these walls I've made
I  did everything I thought was right
Got my stapler
Got my shirt and tie

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Set  me up to zone out
Pushing  paper
Slamming the stapler
Punching  the clock until five

Holding out to get up to the stage
Now I'm turning the page
Feel the rush in my veins
Stepping  into the light

[Chorus]
I've been kicking my feet on the starting line
Now I'm chasin' a feeling (feeling)
Showing up to the stage
Let the crowd decide

I've been working my game in a brand new light
Now I'm breaking the ceiling (ceiling)
I'm done chasing a dream from the starting line

[Verse 2]
Never gonna be a perfect time
To let go of all my safety lines (all my safety lines)
Looking down into the drop below
Nothing to catch me will I ever know

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Set me up to burn out
I'll be thriving
No money, surviving on love
For the thrill of it all (thrill of it all)

Holding out for the taste of a secret I'm keeping
Believe me
Can't keep still on the edge of my seat

[Chorus]
I've been kicking my feet on the starting line
Now I'm chasin' a feeling (feeling)
Showing up to the stage
Let the crowd decide

I've been working my game in a brand new light
Now I'm breaking the ceiling (ceiling)
I'm done chasing a dream from the starting line

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

[Bridge]
I've been patient
I've been waiting
I've been here on the starting line

I've been patient
I've been waiting
I've been here on the

[Chorus]
I've been kicking my feet on the starting line
Now I'm chasin' a feeling (feeling)
Showing up to the stage
Let the crowd decide

I've been working my game in a brand new light
Now I'm breaking the ceiling (ceiling)
I'm done chasing a dream from the starting line
