Leave It All Behind

"Girl look at yourself in the mirror
you’re asking can anybody hear
can anybody hear me screamin’ out loud
and you begin to doubt that you’re ready
that it’s even real

I’ve been broken down by the voices inside
afraid to trust just let me run and hide
from all these hands pressin’ down
just let me figure this out
they can’t hear me
I’m alone in this crowd

But now it’s my turn
don’t wanna hear that I can’t do this
gonna show them all (gonna show them all)
that I have a voice
I’m gonna make them listen
There’s no tellin’ how far I could go

(How far I’ll go)

Take a deep breath and wash away the pain (wash away the pain)
look away, look away I’m done playin’ the stupid game (stupid game)
I’m takin’ back control
no more, I’m ready to know 
how it feels to free myself and let it go
and leave it all behind

Am I goin’ crazy thinkin’ like this
a new feelin’ that I can’t resist
it won’t be easy to move on
gotta prove to them I’m strong ‘cause

Now it’s my turn
don’t wanna hear that I can’t do this
I’m gonna show them all (show them all)
that I have a voice
I’m gonna make them listen
There’s no tellin’ how far I’ll go

How far I’ll go

There’s more to me than you can see (you can see)
they’ll be runnin’ scared
won’t let it get to me no (won’t let it get to me)
I gotta fight like hell and don’t let it show
and leave ‘em all behind

Don’t care if I’m crazy thinkin’ like this
a new feelin’ that I can’t resist
it won’t be easy to move on
gotta prove to them I’m strong ‘cause

Now it’s my turn
don’t wanna hear that I can’t do this
I’m gonna show them all (show them all)
that I have a voice
I’m gonna make them listen (gonna make them listen)
There’s no tellin’ how far I’ll go

How far I’ll go

Don’t care if I’m crazy thinkin’ like this
don’t care if I’m crazy"
