Just Me
Here in the dark now I finally am free
From all the pressure you’re putting on me
Here in the dark I can finally begin to see
Too many years I just took what you said
Let you decide, let you fill up my head
With all these things that I know you believed, and yet
It’s hard to swallow all those
Half truths that you
Tried to feed to me
You told me I was only
As good as you could be
But I finally realized I am better off just me
Just me
Running with you I’ve been running in place
Now I can move and there’s no time to waste
So much to do so I’m off on the endless chase
Of all the dreams I let slide
While you tried to
Turn me into you
Starting today I’m on my way
I’ll stand on my own
I’ll make it alone
From all the pressure you’re putting on me
Here in the dark I can finally begin to see
Too many years I just took what you said
Let you decide, let you fill up my head
With all these things that I know you believed, and yet
It’s hard to swallow all those
Half truths that you
Tried to feed to me
You told me I was only
As good as you could be
But I finally realized I am better off just me
Just me
Running with you I’ve been running in place
Now I can move and there’s no time to waste
So much to do so I’m off on the endless chase
Of all the dreams I let slide
While you tried to
Turn me into you
Starting today I’m on my way
I’ll stand on my own
I’ll make it alone
