You know when there's something wrong
And you keep it bottled up inside
Won't even tell your best friend why
You ain't been feeling yourself lately
You twiddle your thumbs at the table
Tell yourself that you're emotionally stable
Your heart is racing but you're wearing your smile
You think it's better off that way
So maybe you just go for a drink but it follows you down
With every bottle that you sip, no, your troubles won't drown
They just float to the surface 'cause they're only tryna hurt us
They keep on creeping out
Why can't we learn to understand each other better?
Why can't we learn to trust another, last forever, baby?
Little girl, time that you break free, oh-oh
Why can't we learn that we don't have to have it all
Figured out, baby?
Little girl, time that you break free
Little girl, time that you break free
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Little girl, time that you break free
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Tell me what you see
'Cause I don't look like me anymore
Little girl, where have you gone?
And everywhere I don't belong
I don't belong
So maybe I just go for a drink but it follows me down
With every bottle that I sip, no, my troubles won't drown
They just float to the surface 'cause they're only tryna hurt us
They keep on creeping out
Why can't we learn to understand each other better?
Why can't we learn to trust another, last forever, baby?
Little girl, time that you break free, oh-oh
Why can't we learn that we don't have to have it all
Figured out, baby?
Little girl, time that you break free
Little girl, time that you break free
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
Oh-ah, oh-ah, oh
