I WAS SIX YEARS OLD
WHEN MY PARENTS
WENT AWAY
I WAS STUCK INSIDE
A BROKEN LIFE
I COULDN'T WISH AWAY
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL
SHE HAD EVERYTHING
AND MORE
AND MY ESCAPE
WAS HIDIN' OUT
AND RUNNIN' FOR
THE DOOR
SOMEBODY LISTEN
PLEASE
IT USED TO BE SO HARD
BEIN' ME
LIVIN' IN THE SHADOW
OF SOMEONE ELSE'S
DREAM
TRYIN' TO FIND
A HAND TO HOLD
BUT EVERY TOUCH
FELT COLD TO ME
LIVIN' IN A NIGHTMARE
A NEVER-ENDIN' SLEEP
BUT NOW THAT I AM
WIDE AWAKE
MY CHAINS
ARE FINALLY FREE
DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR ME
ALL THE DAYS COLLIDED
ONE LESS PERFECT
THAN THE NEXT
I WAS STUCK INSIDE
SOMEONE ELSE'S LIFE
AND ALWAYS
SECOND BEST
OH I LOVE YOU NOW
'CAUSE NOW I REALIZE
THAT IT'S SAFE OUTSIDE
TO COME ALIVE
IN MY IDENTITY
SO IF YOU'RE LISTENING
THERE'S SO MUCH MORE
TO ME
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN
LIVIN' IN THE SHADOW
OF SOMEONE ELSE'S
DREAM
TRYIN' TO FIND
A HAND TO HOLD
BUT EVERY TOUCH
FELT COLD TO ME
LIVIN' IN A NIGHTMARE
A NEVER-ENDIN' SLEEP
BUT NOW THAT I AM
WIDE AWAKE
I CAN FINALLY SEE
DON'T FEEL SORRY
MOTHER SISTER
FATHER SISTER MOTHER
EVERYTHING'S COOL NOW
MOTHER SISTER
FATHER SISTER MOTHER
EVERYTHING'S COOL NOW
OH MY LIFE IS GOOD
I'VE GOT MORE
THAN ANYONE SHOULD
OH MY LIFE IS GOOD
AND THE PAST
IS IN THE PAST
I WAS LIVIN' IN
THE SHADOW
OF SOMEONE ELSE'S
DREAM
TRYIN' TO FIND
A HAND TO HOLD
BUT EVERY TOUCH
FELT COLD TO ME
I'M LIVIN' IN A NEW DAY
I'M LIVIN' IT FOR ME
AND NOW THAT I AM
WIDE AWAKE
YEAH I CAN FINALLY BE
SO DON'T FEEL SORRY
FOR ME
DON'T FEEL SORRY
DON'T FEEL SORRY
FOR ME
DON'T FEEL SORRY
DON'T FEEL SORRY
FOR ME
4 BAR
BREAK
LIVIN' IN
LIVIN' IN
LIVIN' IN
THE SHADOW
LIVIN' IN
LIVIN' IN
LIVIN' IN
A NEW DAY
