Verse 1
Should I Step Off My Gilded Pedestal?
I Wish I Could See The Glass As Half-Full
I'm So Sick Of Trying To Pretend
I Know All My Ambition Will Pay Off In The End
Chorus
I'm Tired Of Always Feeling Like
I've Been Lied To My Whole Life
I Beg You, Tell Me, Do You See
A Future As Bright As I Believe?
Do I Wanna Know?
I Claim I'm Self-Aware, "I Have So Much Room To Grow"
Please, God, Don't Let The Dust Cover My Dreams
I Can't Lock Up My Heart And Throw Away The Key
Verse 2
Why Can't Anyone Spare Their Niceties?
I Will Keep On Holding Close My Plastic Trophy
I Can't Have A Backup Plan If This Is My Lifeline
I Can't Let My Bouquet Of Flowers Shrivel Up And Die
Chorus
I'm Tired Of Always Feeling Like
I've Been Lied To My Whole Life
I Beg You, Tell Me, Do You See
A Future As Bright As I Believe?
Do I Wanna Know?
I Claim I'm Self-Aware, "I Have So Much Room To Grow"
Please, God, Don't Let The Dust Cover My Dreams
I Can't Lock Up My Heart And Throw Away The Key
Bridge 1
Another Speech About Being A "Big Fish In A Small Pond."
For The First Time, It's Terrifying That It Won't Be Like That For Long
If I Don't Figure It Out Now, Will This Be My Eternity?
I'll Keep Pushing On, But At What Point Does The Boulder Crush Me?
Chorus
I'm Tired Of Always Feeling Like
I've Been Lied To My Whole Life
I Beg You, Tell Me, Do You See
A Future As Bright As I Believe?
Do I Wanna Know?
I Claim I'm Self-Aware, "I Have So Much Room To Grow"
(Please, God)

For The First Time, It's Terrifying That It Won't Be Like That For Long
