Every day I get a little closer to
The things that I wanna say with my life
In no particular order
I'd like to make some sort of mark,
So that the world knows I was her

And I've been thinking about
How I could scream it out loud
Or paint a picture somehow
A thousand miles long
And I've been trying 'til now
These walls are freaking me out
Just need to let it all out
And reach out
Because sometimes, you can forget who you are

I'm tired of trying to make it
I've spent so many nights
Trying to get it all right, oh
I'm sick and tired of waiting
For someone to see and start believing in me
But I know I'm not out here on my own

Every year I get a little farther from
Old misconceptions, that take the place
Of mistakes and lessons
There's things I've learned from
Things I've been burned from
It's part of who I am

And I've been thinking about
How I could scream it out loud
Or paint a picture somehow
A thousand miles long
And I've been trying 'til now
These walls are freaking me out
Just need to let it all out
And reach out
Because sometimes, you can forget who you are

I'm tired of trying to make it
I've spent so many nights
Trying to get it all right, oh
I'm sick and tired of waiting
For someone to see and start believing in me
But I know I'm not out here on my own

There's been a lot of people
Think I'm going nowhere
Times that by ten, for every time I felt like turning around
But everytime you said push on
And keep your head up
Kept me on track from letting myself get fed up

I'm tired of trying to make it
I've spent so many nights
Trying to get it all right, oh
I'm sick and tired of waiting
For someone to see and start believing in me, oh

I'm tired of trying to make it
I've spent so many nights
Trying to get it all right, oh
I'm sick and tired of waiting
For someone to see and start believing in me, oh
But I know I'm not out here on my own
