Just want to be the one you accept,
Even though we both know I'm not the best.

Actions,
Speak on truth,
But live on lies.
Surrounded by people,
Who all know different sides.

In the forest, looking for a clearing.
Screaming so loud but seems no one can hear me.
But you were there for me,
You tried to find me desperately.
No matter which direction I went,
You screamed you'd stick it out till the end.
And know I ran to you
Cause I never thought I could lose you.
I ran away from everyone,
Knowing that I could call you home.
You're all I need to figure out,
But my thoughts were clouded somehow.
I just need to find that opening,
Were we can both start living.
I never thought I could feel this way,
Come with me and let's just run away.

Surrounded by so many people,
But finding every place to hide.
No matter which direction they look,
I'll always be in their blind side.

You'll no longer be my shadow,
In a world I thought was my own.
Blinded by my thoughts of living,
Not knowing what's real or a show.
Growing further from you mind,
Creating a new world in my life.
Falling in holes along the way,
But I can clean up after my mistakes.

I'm going to try and leave this behind,
And start off where I should have before.
Deep in my mind I know I can find,
The person I should have become.
I hope that out there someone will care.
I know that this is the real me,
And not something that you thought I should be.
I'm not some doll you want or need.
All I just want is to be free.

I'm on top of the world,
Or as close as it gets.
Now knowing if I will see this again.
But I will escape to a place that I know,
Where sunrise to sunsets show me that there's no place like home.

Live for tomorrow and just don't follow,
The path they laid hoping that you would change.
Day dreaming along their unknown road,
As you take one step, but fall back three more.

The things you say get under my skin.
With every breath I hang on like a kid.
They say for me to just let it go,
But if I do I might spiral out of control.
Cause so many people can actually win,
But only you can get under my skin.

Stay tonight,
We can run away in our dreams if we want to.
Stay tonight,
You can leave but just know I don't want you to.
Stay tonight,
And know that everything will be alright.
If you just stay tonight.

Take a look,
Another shot.
The target always moves,
But that's what you want.
Stepping on cracks along the way,
Getting up and starting over again.
Now aren't you glad you left me there,
Next time trust me I swear.
