I thought I had myself all figured out
But I spent my whole life holding myself down
And it seems to be that sort of thing I keep doing constantly
Addicted to the pain I cause myself
My head is floating somewhere in the clouds
While I´m paid to entertain a lovely crowd
They sing my songs and feel my pain
Cause pain is what creates my fame
A vicious cycle some day I´ll get out

I can´t believe I´m standing here at all
I can´t believe I made it this far
All the way with a smile on my face
See the the top and I´m not falling off
And all I need is a microphone, I´ll sing
About the things that have been hurting me
It´s safe to say, all the kids, I relate
To their lives so just keep holding on

It´s hard enough try walking in my shoes,
To be picked on by my peers who much abuse
And I´m tired of not fitting in true friends is my final wish
Just let me be myself and make it through.
I have tried so hard to be a better soul
I have worked so hard at making myself whole
And through it all my better years are still ahead my mind is clear
Just trust me when I say I´m in control

I can´t believe I´m standing here at all
I can´t believe I made it this far
All the way with a smile on my face
See the the top and I´m not falling off
And all I need is a microphone, I´ll sing
About the things that have been hurting me
It´s safe to say, all the kids, I relate
To their lives so just keep holding on

I believe I´m just like you
I believe I´ll make it through
It´s hard to see at times like this
But I´m not giving in, but I´m not giving in

I believe I´m just like you
I believe I´ll make it through
It´s hard to see at times like this
But I´m not giving in, but I´m not giving in

And all I need is a microphone
I´ll sing about the things that have been hurting me
It´s safe to say, all the kids, I relate
To their lives so just keep holding on

I can´t believe I´m standing here at all
I can´t believe I made it this far
All the way with a smile on my face
See the the top and I´m not falling off
And all I need is a microphone, I´ll sing
About the things that have been hurting me
It´s safe to say, all the kids, I relate
To their lives so just keep holding on
