I fought a battle, I fought a war
I felt the rain on my face
Sometimes to find what you're looking for
You've got to, learn from your worst mistakes
I made a wish on a satellite
That I mistook for a star
Guess when you build up to break down
You find out, who you really are
How did it all get so heavy?
I used to stand up so tall
There's only so much I can carry
Before I fall
And they tell me "girl you're so lucky"
"You've got the world in your hands"
But you know the world gets so heavy
You don't understand
And that's heavy
♪
Just tell me what's the intention
Is it to fall in love?
I tried to find a connection
Between now, it is and how it was
I made a promise I couldn't keep
Another story to tell
You swear to god that you know me
But I don't, don't even know myself
How did it all get so heavy?
I used to stand up so tall
There's only so much I can carry
Before I fall
And they tell me "girl you're so lucky"
"You've got the world in your hands"
But you know the world gets so heavy
You don't understand
And that's heavy
♪
Sometimes I lay awake in bed at night
I close my eyes and all I see is see the
Dreams I used to dream about when I was younger
I wonder where I took the path of no return
I might've lost my way a hundred
Times but no I never ever lost the ground
Oh and I know every cut and every stitch and every scar
I know they've gotten me this far,
They only made me tough, they made me stronger
The limit's hard to break but I just can't get off the phone
I offer days when I was free and I would listen on the phone
It all got so heavy
I used to stand up so tall
There's only so much I can carry
Before I fall
They tell me "girl you're so lucky"
"You've got the world in your hands"
But you know the world gets so heavy
You don't understand
And that's heavy, heavy
