Unwritten Stories Lyrics

Small town girl with big city dreams

Mama's eyes filled with hope, it seems

"Make something of yourself," she said

Those words echo in my head

Neon lights and skyscrapers high

Promised stories that would never die

Years flew by in a haze of light

Chasing stories, day and night

But the truth I tried to write

Slipped away into the night

Dreams fading like morning mist

What have I become in all of this?

Unwritten stories, pages torn and frayed

Unsung glories, a price I've paid

Shadows of the girl I used to be

Mama, can you see the real me?

(Unwritten stories)

Will I ever break free?

Local news and petting zoos

Not the path that I would choose

Thirty candles on a store-bought cake

City's pulse, my heart won't break

But late at night, I still recall

The dreams that once stood proud and tall

Sought the truth in gurus' eyes

Monastic walls and starry skies

But the story I can't face

Is the one I can't erase

Am I lost or just displaced?

A chapter that can't be replaced

Unwritten stories, pages torn and frayed

Unsung glories, a price I've paid

Shadows of the girl I used to be

Mama, can you see the real me?

(Unwritten stories)

Will I ever break free?

In the silence of my room

Words unspoken start to bloom

What if I dared to try again?

To let my true voice flow like rain

The girl with dreams isn't truly gone

She's been here all along

Now I sit in my office high

Deciding which truths will fly

But something's stirring deep inside

A story that I cannot hide

Mama calls, I hear her plea

"Are you happy?" she asks me

How to say her little girl

Got beaten by the world?

But wait – there's more to tell

A new chapter breaking from this shell

The ink is fresh, the page is clear

It's time to face my deepest fear

Unwritten stories, now I'll give them life

Unsung glories, I'll make them shine so bright

Rediscovering the girl I'm meant to be

Mama, soon you're gonna see

These unwritten stories

They're finally setting me free

The story's mine to write anew

With every word, I break through

These unwritten stories

Are finally coming true

(Unwritten stories)

A new beginning

(Unwritten glories)

(The real me is winning)
