I’m standing on the edge
Locking down
Afraid to take the step
On my own
Waiting for your permission

I’m too scared to try
I will fall
Scared that I’ll let you down
Hear my call
Your words are my inhibition

What if I
Could fly alone
Could be free
Could be on my own
And feel
That I can be strong

I want to grow up
Want to be enough
Seen as an equal
In your eyes
In your eyes

I’m half way down
I’m falling
It was not enough
Pretending
I’m forever lost in your shadow

I wanted to help
I was wrong
If you could only see
I’m not strong
The inside of my mind is hollow

What if I
Could fly alone
Could be free
Could be on my own
And feel
That I can be strong

I want to grow up
Want to be enough
Seen as an equal
In your eyes
In your eyes

I’ve been hurt
I’ve been lost
I’ve been dragged in the dirt
You don’t know
What it’s like
To fight the darkness in my heart
Every night

What if I
Could fly alone
Could be free
Could be on my own
And feel
That I can be strong

I want to grow up
Want to be enough
Seen as an equal
In your eyes
In your eyes
