its really sinking in now

the new me, the one that's not shy

or afraid of the dark

the new sam who can be anyone

travel anywhere

who doesn't let people bully her

or guys just lead her astray

but i'm not feeling better

i'm just feeling ok

 

high school will be that monumental step into some new life

and i plan to succeed in every way

but i don't want people to recognize me

dyed hair, contacts, new clothes, new friends

the perfect disguise

 

welcome to heaven

you just had to live in hell for a couple years till we knew you could make it

just knocked you down a few times

before you could awake a new person

well, i'm friends with God now

he'll protect me

but everyone else, won't even know me

 

four years

no tears

no fears

just sam

i can

just be happy

for once

without my past

interfering
