Whenever you get this way
To say anything else
It's time for you to understand
To say anything else
Gotta mean it when you say what you want
'Cause you never know
(You're only safe when you're alone)
So say what you want
You gotta mean it and when you say what you want
And you are so confused
Stop getting up for the let down
Some day you'll sing it out loud
And baby it's just like you
(You know I'm wasting all my time)
Or how the story goes
Just how the story ends
And you are so confused
One day this will make you proud
That you're the star you wanna be
(You know I'm wasting all my time)
Oh, I'm here to say
Just how the story ends
Someday you'll sing it out loud
Whoa, "I know"
And I'm here to say
You are saying anything that gets you by
And just open up and look inside
(You're only safe when you're alone)
And baby don't follow their lead
Mmm, here they come
One day this will make you proud
And everybody's on your mind
Saying anything to get you by
Whoa, "I know"
And baby it's just like you
Whoa, "I know"
"I know" is never good enough
And you will see, yeah
It's not, not, not gonna get you
Someday you'll sing it out loud
And you will see, yeah
Or how the story goes
Whoa, "I know"
Oh, who you want is not up to them
[Incomprehensible] gonna get you by
You are wasting everybody's time
Just getting up for the let down
Whoa
One day this will make you proud
One day this will make you proud
Whoa
"I know", is never good enough
Someday you'll sing it out loud
That you're the star you wanna be
Whoa, "I know"
Just getting up for the let down
Whoa, "I know"
And just open up and look inside
One day this will make you proud
Someday you'll sing it out loud
Stop getting up for the let down
And so to get what you want
And, yes, they're here to stay
Whoa
