I was six years old, when my parents went away, I was stuck inside a broken life, I couldn't wish away, she was beautiful, she had everything and more, and my escape was hiding out and running for the door, somebody listen please, it used to be so hard being me, living in the shadow, of someone else's dream, trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me, living in a nightmare, a never-ending sleep, but now that I am wide awake, my chains are finally free, don't feel sorry for me, all the days collided, one less perfect than the next, I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best, I love you now 'cause now I realize, that it's safe outside to come alive in my identity, so if you're listening, there's so much more to me you haven't seen
