The Way I Was
I've been here in this place
I've been stuck in this space
Like a ghost that's been missing its life
Silent words in my mouth
Yeah, they wanna scream out
And I'll leave my old shadow behind
In my heart and out of my mind
Oh-woah
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll show who I am from the inside
Gonna take my walk on the wild side
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah
No, I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'm the leaf, I'm a seed
That's been waiting for spring
I'm a girl reinventing herself
We might fall, we might rise
We are all butterflies
Breaking free from our jars on the shelf
Finding out the truth for ourselves
Oh-woah
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll show who I am from the inside
Gonna take my walk on the wild side
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah
No, I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Could be hurt, could be love
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll show who I am from the inside
Gonna take my walk on the wild side
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah
No, I can't go back, back to the way I was
I've been stuck in this space
Like a ghost that's been missing its life
Silent words in my mouth
Yeah, they wanna scream out
And I'll leave my old shadow behind
In my heart and out of my mind
Oh-woah
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll show who I am from the inside
Gonna take my walk on the wild side
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah
No, I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'm the leaf, I'm a seed
That's been waiting for spring
I'm a girl reinventing herself

Oh-woah
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll show who I am from the inside
Gonna take my walk on the wild side
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah
No, I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Could be hurt, could be love
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll go, but I won't go quietly
Go down, but I'll go down fighting
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
I'll show who I am from the inside
Gonna take my walk on the wild side
Don't know where, don't know why
But I can't go back, back to the way I was
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah
No, I can't go back, back to the way I was
