So you see, here’s the truth

So you see, here’s the truth
Time to come clean
Can’t seem to leave my past in the rear view
It’s creeping up on me like a shadow
It’s a constant battle between my head and my heart

And I’m sorry, I’m sorry for the way that I am
But if you dig deeper into my soul, you’ll understand
I know, yeah I know, I’m not easy to deal with
But honey, now you know how I feel living in my head

Pre-Chorus

Mmm-hmm, oh-oh, yeah-yeah
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah
I’ve tried to forget about it
But every time I think that door is closed
Something pulls me back inside
To a place I thought I left behind

Chorus

I’m still living in my head
With the things I never said
And the memories I can’t outrun
Even when I’m trying to move on
I don’t need you to fix me
I just need you to see
That I’m fighting every day
To become the person I’m trying to be

So if I push you away
Please don’t think I don’t care
Sometimes I’m just trying to find
A little peace in there
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
For the way that I am
But I’m learning how to love
With a heart that’s been through hell

Verse 2

Some days I wake up feeling stronger
Like maybe I can finally breathe
Then the smallest thing can take me
Right back to who I used to be

I don’t wanna make my past your problem
I don’t wanna make you pay
For the things that someone else did
Or the love they took away

I’m trying to learn that I am worthy
Of a love that doesn’t leave
That I don’t have to hide my feelings
Just to make somebody stay with me

Pre-Chorus

Mmm-hmm, oh-oh,
Oh-oh, yeah-yeah
I’ve tried to forget about it
But every time I think that door is closed
Something pulls me back inside
To a place I thought I left behind

Chorus

I’m still living in my head
With the things I never said
And the memories I can’t outrun
Even when I’m trying to move on
I don’t need you to fix me
I just need you to see
That I’m fighting every day
To become the person I’m trying to be

So if I push you away
Please don’t think I don’t care
Sometimes I’m just trying to find
A little peace in there
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
For the way that I am
But I’m learning how to love
With a heart that’s been through hell

Bridge

And maybe one day I’ll look back
And see how far I’ve come
Maybe I’ll stop blaming myself
For things I never should’ve done

I’m not the girl I was back then
I’m not the pain I’ve known
I’m still learning how to heal
But I don’t have to do it alone

Final Chorus

I’m still living in my head
But I’m not giving up yet
And the memories I can’t outrun
Don’t get to decide who I become
I don’t need you to fix me
I just need you to see
That I’m fighting every day
To become the person I’m trying to be

So if I push you away
Please don’t think I don’t care
Sometimes I’m just trying to find
A little peace in there
I’m sorry, I’m sorry
For the way that I am
But I’m learning how to love
With a heart that’s been through hell

Outro


I’m still learning how to breathe
I’m still learning how to be
And maybe I’m not easy to love
But I’m trying, honey
I’m trying enough
