You can't see what i'm hiding deep inside
it's not rainbows, it's not flowers, it's not pretty blue skies
there's a song running through my veins
it's the beat of my heart
balancing the dark and light
shows about to start
all the tears of many years
make up the refrain
but the words inside the verses
can'[t be called the same
those words are much brighter
they are my shining stars
those words are the bandages covering up my scars
but if you take the bandage off
my skin is still rough
it's not that i am not ok
i'm just not that tough
people can't see past my mask
i'm hiding behind myself i know that i really should
just put this habit on the shelf
i should open the door
let others in
and i know that it would
help my life to begin
i'm sorry for the pain i've caused
i regret the mistakes i've made
i'm ready for my new beginning
ready to stop my head from spinning
let me go
let me let it go
let me fly
let me apologize
let me realize
let me be myself
let me find myself
let me run
let me take the leap
let me go
i know you worry
but i promise i'm in no hurry
i know you're scared
so am i
But i really need to fly
on my own
far from home
just let me go
