Lyrics
You're alive
Looking up and down halls you'll surely be calling your home
Give it time
You feel trapped in these walls, but quite soon now they'll feel like your own
It's okay to be scared, the world's coming at you so hard
There's a place for you here, just be true, and follow your heart
Playing cards
Of the acts and behaviors acceptable for me to do
Hold my guard
They'll think highly of me and I'll be well achieved when I'm through
Every day of my life I've been clutching this ache in my gut
Glory pacing the eyes of the people I know and I love
I wanna be just like everyone
I wanna break in these shoes
I wanna be fearless
I wanna be good as new
These strange hands on your body, that tear it apart
And you're bringing it on with these pings in your heart
And you'll shove your throat down and stay silent
But you looked in the mirror and you sighed again
You don't wanna grow up
You don't wanna feel like this at all
You just wanna curl up
In an indestructible ball
When I'm older, I'll see
I'll become what I'm meant to be
When I can't stand the change
I'll hold on to my faith
And every time that I speak
Someone else comes out
So I'm letting him talk
And I'm shutting my mouth
And I'm looking so proud
As I get through my lines
And the stage lights are beaming
And the collar's too tight
There's no pill you can't swallow
Or a pain you can't stomach
You keep tasting that malice
You keep saying you love it
But then there comes a point
Where you can't hold it anymore
You start spilling your guts
All over the floor
Don't wanna be seen by anyone
I wish they'd all look away
It's not okay to be like this
I still feel it all the same
I just wish I was beautiful (I just wish I was beautiful)
I'd do so much to be beautiful (They don't want me to be beautiful)
Just please let me be beautiful (God why can't I be beautiful?)
I just wish I was beautiful
They keep telling me to play my part
They keep saying it's all for a reason
If this really is just the way things are
Why the hell is nobody screaming?
No dam could stop this river
No gag could muffle the shrieks
The path they carved him into for so long
You did everything
You feel the mask as it's slipping
The seal is breaking apart
It's peeling off until you cannot hide
From the beat of your heart
When the rain comes pouring
I'll celebrate it's elegance
When I'm older, which I'll be
I'll be thanking myself for this
Show me your horrors, and I will survive
I was a corpse, now I am alive
