I don’t want it to be real
I wanted to be fake
I wanted to hide
And I wanted to escape
We run from our enemies
Demons never die
I try to be friends
But friends don’t ever lie
They tell me I’m young
I don’t understand
But they don’t know
I’ve seen worse than they all have
Personal ghosts
Being alone
I don’t wanna die
But we all are so close
This is my life
And I’m trying hard
To make sense of all the fights
These are my dreams
But one by one
They’re slipping through the seams
I wanna be more
I wanna be more
Than just some stupid girl
I know how it feels
I wanna fly free
At night I dream
Of a world that is mine
You and I
And a whole lot of free time
Please don’t yell
Please make it stop
I cover my ears
but the words are still strong
Listen to me
Cause I have a voice
It might be small
But I need to be heard
We try to work
You can’t see the light
To you I’m the match
That never would ignite
This is my life
And I’m trying hard
To make sense of all the fights
These are my dreams
But one by one
They’re slipping through the seams
I wanna be more
I wanna be more
Than just some stupid girl
I know how it feels
I wanna fly free
Oh isn’t it strange
The more that you gain
the more you can lose
Oh isn’t it weird
The more that you hear
The more you can bruise
We try to run
From battles inside
The war goes on
But both sides are blind
We praise the old
Envy the young
But in the end
We still killed the troops
This is my life
And I’m trying hard
To make sense of all the fights
These are my dreams
But one by one
They’re slipping through the seams
I wanna be more
I wanna be more
Than just some stupid girl
I know how it feels
I wanna fly free
