Lyrics
Pre Chorus:
She was so damn afraid.
To let people see her live.
And getting her heart broken.
Cause she would give and give.
Verse 1:
She paved her own path.
And she didn’t need a prince.
Would take her every where.
And assumed that she’d be convinced.
Verse 2:
One day he didn't show.
Though they were in the same room.
Off in his own world.
And she didn’t get the invitation.
Pre Chorus:
She was so damn afraid.
To let people see her live.
And getting her heart broken.
Cause she would give and give.
Chorus:
So she packed her bags.
Let the fire do the rest.
She just cracked a smile.
But her anger worked out best.
Post Chorus:
You can only fake it.
Until finally you'll just break.
And you can only mimic.
What you want to really say.
Verse 3:
In a fit of rage.
She just blew her damn fuse.
She really didn’t care about.
What anything looked like anymore.
Verse 4:
She had found her power.
And she was no longer scared.
To stand up against those.
People that said that they cared.
Pre Chorus:
She was so damn afraid.
To let people see her live.
And getting her heart broken.
Cause she would give and give.
Chorus:
So she packed her bags.
Let the fire do the rest.
She just cracked a smile.
But her anger worked out best.
Post Chorus:
You can only fake it.
Until finally you'll just break.
And you can only mimic.
What you want to really say.
Bridge:
So just please relieve me.
I want you to really believe me.
I'm now a strong person.
So please, please don’t deceive me.
Chorus:
So she packed her bags.
Let the fire do the rest.
She just cracked a smile.
But her anger worked out best.
Post Chorus:
You can only fake it.
Until finally you'll just break.
And you can only mimic.
What you want to really say.
Refrain:
Only retreat that I really need.
Is a place by myself.
And a place that I can heal.
A place with people that care.
And a place with people I love.
I'll triumph without you my love.
