Stop Me June (Little Ego)

I've been waiting for my brilliance to shine through, like waiting would do
I've been called a little coward more than once, it hurts when it's true
I've been following your footprints in the snow, trying to return
The excuses that I stole

I'm the first on and the last off the bus, Little Ego, be still
And I fight the cold wind back up the street to Hagnesta Hill
And the darkness and the snow fall as one and I lost my scarf
At a bus stop on the outskirts of town

I gather all the courage and the hate, Little Ego is wild
And my voice broke, I finally reached that age, I was cruel as a child
If this feeling that remains is not mine, then it's something new
Maybe my brilliance shining through

It's noisy, can't think, I can't speak
I'm tired of handshakes, so please
Get rid of this crowd, I can't breathe here anymore
You just have to let me go

It's noisy, can't think, I can't speak
I'm tired of handshakes, so please
Get rid of this crowd, I can't breathe here anymore
You just have to let me go

You just have to let me go
You just have to let me go
You just have to let me go
And I don't need your help
You just have to let me go
