They got your walls as tall as the ceiling or
Your heart's curled up in a ball on the floor
It's never been this hard
To push on through the dark
I know it's tough
To make a smile creep out of the broken doubt
When the rest of you is torn
Just wait, they got more words in store
Like you're stupid
I think they're stupid
You wonder why they do this
There ain't a reason
They think they're tough, right?
Taking your time to make a rough night
For someone else, it's not a dumb fight
'Cause all we have is who we are
Who we are
And not everybody has a heart as thick as ours
Keep aiming for the stars
Don't forget who you are
Who you are
Oh-oh-oh, oh
Take it for granted
The love they've been handed
Yeah, we're all misdirected
We try to learn the lessons
But when you're alone
Your heart turns to stone
No heart or home
Stolen conclusion
Your mind's all turned over
From words of illusion
But you're fine
You're fine, you're fine
You're fine, you're fine
Lay your head down, it'll be right
Take your time to realize
They're all just lies
'Cause not everybody has a heart as thick as ours
Keep aiming for the stars
Not everybody has a heart as thick as ours
Keep aiming for the stars
It's so hard
To let a smile creep out of all the broken doubt
When you're gone, alone
Because they take you down, they skin you to the bone
Do you know who you are?
'Cause I know who you are
You're a pinch of perfect
A dash of worth it
Don't take your life
Just stay tongue-tied
I know it's hard
Do they know it's this hard
To make a smile creep out of a pile of broken doubt?
When all of it's gone they, take you down, they take your stars
But I need you to shine for me tonight
I need you to shine, need you to shine
'Cause It doesn't look like
I said it doesn't look like it gets better
I said it doesn't look like it gets better
I said it doesn't look like it gets better
With all of this heavy weather
Well, it doesn't look like it gets better
But I swear it does
But I know you think twice 'cause of the heavy, heavy weather
And you don't know whether to stay
Because not everybody has a heart as thick as yours
Keep aiming for the stars
Don't forget who you are
'Cause you've gotten this far
Don't let them take it all
