lyrics

It’s been a long time
Since pen to paper
It’s been a long time
Forgot all about my dreams
It’s been a long time
Put myself back together
What was I thinking
To draw a line and leave a piece of me behind?

Wanna get to know you
So I can show you
All the things that I’ve been hiding from myself
All of me that I had put back on the shelf

Yeah it’s been a weird ride
Wound up on the safe road
Been going out of my mind
Baby, do you recognise me?
It’s been a lonely time
Pulled myself together
Had to get away from things
Make a change, fall apart and start again

Wanna get to know you
So I can show you
All the things that I’ve been hiding from myself
All of me that I had put back on the shelf

We’ve been on this low together
And you know it’s now or never
Got way too comfortable
Stuck, unable to grow

Won’t hide away
I’ll try to change
And open up
I am enough
To speak my mind
And share my soul
Is to live my life in full control
