Without Me Lyrics

When I was 13

I'd picture life move along

I would dream of 16

Free and in control

And when that day came

I'd finally be whole

And then 16 hit

It wasn't like I thought at all

My soul was more broken

Then I thought possible

And then I began

Building my walls

Is this what life is

I can't hold on

And then I think

What would the world be missing

Without me

And now I'm 24

Look at how far I've come

If you read it on paper

She's got it going on

But I still have those days

Where I can't seem to go on

So when 30 hits

I don't have much hope

I think I'll get better

But then say think again

Will there come a day

When I'll finally be whole

Is this what life is

I can't hold on

But then I think

Would the world be as pretty

Without me
