Lyrics
Tell me what to do when I’m in a crowd
Should I keep within myself or stand tall and proud?
Feeling I can’t cope with all eyes on me
So, I tie myself in knots hoping they won’t see
Want to get it right and make them feel good
Doing all the right things like I know I should
Need to be that one who could save the day
And have no hesitation with the words to say
Chorus:
After a lifetime of heartache
Lost on a mountain of doubt
I’ll step away from my darkness
To try to find a way out
I’ve cast aside zones of comfort
I’m now where I need to be
But yet I still don’t belong here
It doesn’t sit well with me
Always find myself, stepping to one side
So, when you cut me down, I can easily hide
Smiling to the world, I don’t show my pain
It’s much easier to laugh than to stop the rain
Confidence deserts me now as I strive
To be what I believe makes me feel alive
Try to find a voice, then my face turns red
Agonising in regret, as the words weren’t said
Nails are digging in, as the tension’s tight
Turning inwards on myself, crushed to half my height
Foolish as a child with a life to learn
Standing helpless in defeat as the tables burn
Afraid of messing up, desperate to be right
Reliving what I said, lonely in the night
I know I should forget, else see a chance to grow
Once we let it own us, there’s no place to go
