You know I used to look at the mirror and see my mom,
But I'd stare 'cause I couldn't shake the feeling that I was, playing a part
I'd lay in bed, hear their voices,
Say my name with pride
If only they knew, the troubled waters
I hid, inside
Chorus:
Am I strongest when I can be, True to myself,
These steps all have ledges
That even if I fall, all the same,
You'd still be there
Is there not so much left to be
And there not so much left to do
Than grow old together?
You know I, used to bike by this coastline
Of pine and the sea
Now I'm back, and flutters they flood in
But they're welcome, you see
I thought I was weak
Shrug it off, Who wouldn't want to be me
But you saw through the cracks
Wanted me whole, taught me to see
That I am strongest, when i can be, true to myself ,
These steps don't need ledges
That even if I fall, all the same
You'll still be there
And there is nothing left to be
And there is nothing left to do
But grow old together
You know I used to look at the mirror and see my mom
But now I'm strongest when I can be
True to myself, these steps don't need ledges
That even if I fall, all the same
You'll still be there
And there is nothing left to be
And there is nothing left to do
But grow old together
