I've been warring with myself
I've wrestled these ideas and all these things I've felt
And I don't feel any better
The war goes on but whatever
We all think too much
I guess I sat here just hoping that all these things you were throwing
Would reassure my uncertainties
I start to choose a direction
When you shake your head and I question the steps I start to take
And I'm sure the view is breathtaking
If I could only step to that ledge
They take a picture of you at the top
Did you smile when the flash went off?
If I stop to catch my breath could you please slow up?
Because it hurts that much when my lungs are numb
If I hint at giving in, remind me I'm strong
And I need to be where I want to belong
It takes time to feel sure about this
Security is something I can't quite grab a hold of yet
I start to lose my direction when you choke on your words
And I question the steps I start to take
Words are not necessary. So instead of that could you maybe
Just let me go my way?
They take a picture of you at the top
Did you smile when the flash went off?
If I stop to catch my breath could you please slow up?
Because it hurts that much when my lungs are numb
If I hint at giving in, remind me I'm strong
And I need to be where I want to belong
I'm naked for the world
And it's chilling to be outside
Where I can't see anything in front of me clearly
It's a right of passage
Like a child in it's adolescence
It's a passing storm and I can only wait it out
So I wait it out, with our without you
If I stop to catch my breath could you please slow up?
Because it hurts that much when my lungs are numb
If I hint at giving in, remind me I'm strong
And I need to be where I want to belong
I'm naked for the world
And it's chilling to be outside
Where I can't see anything in front of me clearly
