Everything's cool now
Living in the shadow of someone else's dream
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me
That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity
There's so much more to me you haven't seen
Don't feel sorry for me
I was living in the shadow of someone else's dream
Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me
Living in, living in, living in the shadow
Living in a nightmare a never-ending sleep
Living in the shadow of someone else's dream
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
And the past is in the past
I've got more than anyone should
Everything's cool now
Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
Don't feel sorry for me
Living in a nightmare a never-ending sleep
I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best
It used to be so hard being me
All the days collided one less perfect than the next
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
So don't feel sorry for me
And now that I am wide awake, yeah, I can finally be
And my escape was hiding out and running for the door
Oh, my life is good
Somebody listen please
So if you're listening
Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize
But now that I am wide awake my chains are finally free
Oh, my life is good
Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me
But now that I am wide awake then I can finally see
She was beautiful, she had everything and more
I'm living in a new day, I'm living it for me
