Today I washed my makeup away
So that the mirror could see my face
I wanted all my pain to portray
What my words could not say
Cos I’ll never be good enough
They see my tears and call my bluff
Gotta tough it out and suck it up to stay
To stay
Keep on running to the top
No time to breathe
No time to stop
But I
Gotta shut the world out
And break down
So I can see what’s left of me
Time for me to be alone
Where I feel home
And remember what I believe
I just wanna cry out loud
Cos it’s the only sound
That will truly set me free
I’m just standing still to say to you
I’m not perfect
Just thought you should know
So hectic I can't find my way
And I'm tired of all this rain
I'm damaged and so ashamed
Only half my soul remains
Cos I’ll never be pretty enough
They see my tears and call my bluff
Gotta tough it out and suck it up to stay
To stay
Keep on running to the top
No time to breathe
No time to stop
But I
Gotta shut the world out
And break down
So I can see what’s left of me
Time for me to be alone
Where I feel home
And remember what I believe
I just wanna cry out loud
Cos it’s the only sound
That will truly set me free
I’m just standing still to say to you
I’m not perfect
Oh I'm so afraid to change
And oh I know it's the only way
Gotta shut the world out
And break down
So I can see what’s left of me
Time for me to be alone
Where I feel home
And remember what I believe
I just wanna cry out loud
Cos it’s the only sound
That will truly set me free
I’m just standing still to say to you
I’m not perfect
Just thought you should know
