Lyrics
When I was younger
I had these dreams
That I'd grow older and do the things
That I claimed I would
Go to the parties and sign my name
Look in the mirror
And see the face
Of a wiser me
And be someone
I can be proud of
Will the time spent on this
Ever be enough?
Maybe it's meant to be
But not today
Today I'm someone else
Today I'm discouraged,
Disheartened by the mistakes I never made
Walking out on opportunities
I don't regret to this day
If I could, I would go back in time
And tell myself
"You'll be satisfied
But those dreams you have
They won't come to pass"
I will follow my heart
I know it may lead me astray
I will follow the truth
Or the one that I once knew
Then the bridge collapsed
Under my feet
I'm done being stepped on
And walked all over
That girl I see in the mirror
I don't know her
I realize if you want to be heard
You've got to speak into the mic
They won't listen if there's nothing to be said
It's all been done before
Authentic, genuine
All too rare
"Play what they wanna hear"
Well I don't care
I know it's meant to be and it's today
Today I am myself
Today I am free of the filter
They put on me
When I was younger
I had these dreams
And now that I'm older
I do the things
All in honesty
