The Wild Reeds Capable Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He says, 'You're awful young for 21
You've got some work to do
Bite your pencil harder than
You were planning to"

[Verse 2]
"You daydream slow, you sleep too quick
You need a sharper view
There's much more out there than someone
Who's lying next to you"

[Chorus]
He said, "You're capable of so much more
Than these people give you credit for
And you just need to show it"

[Verse 3]
Growing up was not an easy movement for me
You nudge and nudge
You push and shove
And I might still stay asleep

And it's a struggle to think on my feet
I fear the harsh regard
But friend, if you'd encourage me
I know I'd make it far

[Chorus]
You said I'm capable of so much more
Than these people give me credit for
And I just need to show it

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
And my anger surrounds me
Like a coat when I shiver
I let it surround me with
These thoughts often so bitter
But friend, if you'd help me
I think I'd make it through this winter

[Chorus]
You said I'm capable of so much more
Than these people give me credit for
And I just need to show it

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm capable of so much more
Than you people give me credit for
And I just need to show it

[Solo / Ending]
