Rock Stars

She moves to l.a. she wants to be somebody
Three and a half years later she's still not anybody
She's still hoping for a break while she's waiting tables
Realizing some dreams are fables
Fear grows when she knows that she's out of control
Throwing up in the bathroom hope that nobody knows
And she fears she's a failure she forgets that god loves her

You tried and you failed hold your head up high
You climbed and you fell hold your head up high
You tried and you failed hold your head up high
Hold your head up hold your head up high

[chorus]
Coz if we never make it ever then it's gonna be ok with me
Coz if it's not ok to fall sometimes it's not ok to be
If they don't want us it's ok honest
It doesn't have to bring me down
Let them say we're not big rock stars
It's not what we're about
We don't have to be rock stars
We don't have to be rock stars

They said he'd never make it maybe they're right
His parents never believe that his dreams could take flight
All he ever wanted was for them to be proud of him
It was the whole world to him he needed to win
He gave his everything but sometimes it's not enough
He thinks he's a failure now he's not worth being loved
He forgets he had the courage to climb up so high
The courage to try, the courage to fly

You tried and you failed hold your head up high
You climbed and you fell hold your head up high
You tried and you failed hold your head up high
Hold your head up hold your head up high
[chorus]

It's not about success life is not a test
You don't pass or fail you just do your best
To see the view from wings of courage
To push on through when we're discouraged
It's all about the try all about the ride
Learning how you were meant to touch the sky
Failures are fliers who touch down
Only they know what it's like to leave the ground
[chorus]
