People kept knocking
And knocking on my door
So we put a sign up
That read "she don't live here anymore
She left her doubts
She left her fears
And ran away
She left her worries
Her insecurities
And ran away"
CHORUS:
Don't shoot me down
I want to fly
I want to break free
From these feelings that tie
Our hearts to the ground
They don't let us breathe
They suffocate me
I want to be free
The shadows they followed
And followed me around
They caused destruction
Then left without a sound
I left my doubt
I left my fear
And ran away
I left my worries
My insecurities
And ran away
CHORUS
Cause you ain't living your life
If what you do is a compromise
And you're only saying
What they want you to say
You hide from your thoughts
Like they're filled with so much poison
You're going through life
Always afraid
CHORUS
