My wings won't open up
Far enough to make the jump
Why am I always just too late or just too soon?
Why am I never good enough
For the ones who judge that stuff?
I silence all my fear and doubt
Just long enough to call you out
I'm not falling
I'm not drowning
You're just trying to take control
You're trying to take control of this
So I tried to shut you out
But your voice just carries loud
When it seems everyone else gets what I want
And now I'm stronger facing fears
And fighting demons all these years
I found something to live for, so
I pack my shit to let you go
I'm not falling
I'm not drowning
You're just trying to take control
You're trying to take control of this
I'm not changing
I'm just staying who I am
You're trying to take control
You're trying to take control of this
And time is running out
But I am running faster
I am running faster
The night won't take its toll
Until the morning after
Until the morning after
I'm not falling
I'm not drowning
You're just trying to take control
You're trying to take control of this
I'm not changing
I'm just staying who I am
You're trying to take control
You're trying to take control of this
I'm not falling
You're just trying to take control
But I am running faster
