i fought a battle i fought a war i felt the rain on my face sometimes to find what you re looking for you ve gotta learn from your worst mistakes i made a wish on a satellite that i mistook for a star guess when you build up to break down you find out who you really are how did it all get so heavy i used to stand up so tall there s only so much i can carry before i fall and they tell me girl you re so lucky you ve got the world in your hands but you know the world gets so heavy you don t understand and that s heavy just tell me what s the intention is it to fall in love i tried to find a connection between how it is and how it was i made a promise i couldn t keep another story to tell you swear to god that you know me but i don t don t even know myself how did it all get so heavy i used to stand up so tall there s only so much i can carry before i fall and they tell me girl you re so lucky you ve got the world in your hands but you know the world gets so heavy you don t understand and that s heavy  sometimes i lay awake in bed at night i close my eyes and all i see is see the dreams i used to dream about when i was younger i wonder where i took the path of no return i might ve lost my way a hundred times but no i never ever lost the hunger oh and i know every cut and every stitch and every scar i know they ve gotten me this far they only made me tough they made me stronger but when it s hard to breathe and i just can t get off the floor i long for days when i was free a life i lived so long before how did it all get so heavy i used to stand up so tall there s only so much i can carry before i fall and they tell me girl you re so lucky you ve got the world in your hands but you know the world gets so heavy you don t understand and that s heavy heavy
