And it starts with me
Telling myself
That I deserve this
Then it moves to me
Telling myself
That I deserve this
It's the happiness
That I need the most
It's to hold someone that you love close
It's saying the things that I only want to hear
(Chorus)
I know that I may be close
To knowing how it feels to be held back
But my time with you
It tells me to tell the truth
But my time with you
It tells me to tell the truth
I can fool myself
By telling me
That tomorrow's a brand new day
But waking up
By myself
Is something I can't change
It's beating my down
I'm losing the fight
But I have something they don't know
It's you
You're changing me too
(Chorus)
And I'm winning the fight
I'm tearing it down
I'm taking it back for more
And my houses are
They're burning down
And I could care less
From coast to coast
I'll carry this message around
That I'm strong enough
To tell myself that I'm okay
I'm okay
Telling myself
That I deserve this
Then it moves to me
Telling myself
That I deserve this
It's the happiness
That I need the most
It's to hold someone that you love close
It's saying the things that I only want to hear
(Chorus)
I know that I may be close
To knowing how it feels to be held back
But my time with you
It tells me to tell the truth
But my time with you
It tells me to tell the truth
I can fool myself
By telling me
That tomorrow's a brand new day
But waking up
By myself
Is something I can't change
It's beating my down
I'm losing the fight
But I have something they don't know
It's you
You're changing me too
(Chorus)
And I'm winning the fight
I'm tearing it down
I'm taking it back for more
And my houses are
They're burning down
And I could care less
From coast to coast
I'll carry this message around
That I'm strong enough
To tell myself that I'm okay
I'm okay
