I kept trying all these years To be the standart, to hide my tears To smile at everyone in the table I thought I was able To receive all I gave To leave the cave Today I see that's not right I know who I am, I've seen the light I'm not lonely, just alone I don't look at their faces on my phone I gave up on her, I gave up on him That's what I mean It's all over today And I think I don't have to pay It's okay to let go My life isn't anymore a show Now I understand, at last That my wild days are past.

The day I stopped trying
I kept trying all these years To be the standart, to hide my tears To smile at everyone in the table I thought I was able To receive all I gave To leave the cave Today I see that's not right I know who I am, I've seen the light I'm not lonely, just alone I don't look at their faces on my phone I gave up on her, I gave up on him That's what I mean It's all over today And I think I don't have to pay It's okay to let go My life isn't anymore a show Now I understand, at last That my wild days are past.
