"Good At What I Do" lyrics

"Good At What I Do"

Am I good at what I do
Do I live up to the kings
Will my words go on forever
When my voice no longer sings
Is it all up in my head
Or is it all up to you
I don't really know
If I'm good at what I do

Am I good at how I love
Can you feel it in these walls
Do I show it in the springtime
Does it warm you in the fall
Even when I'm far away
Does it keep us close enough
I don't really know
If I'm good at how I love

Oh but I could talk about your glory days
What makes you come alive
And what I wouldn't change
But I can't talk about myself
The way I talk about you
Cause I don't really know
If I'm good at what I do

I can see past all the thorns
In another person's heart
I can hand out second chances
Walk through the hardest part
Hold a mirror to my face
I'll point out what you don't see
The brave silhouette of who I wish that I could be

Oh but I could talk about your glory days
What makes you come alive
And what I wouldn't change
But I can't talk about myself
The way I talk about you
Cause I don't really know
If I'm good at what I do
