By myself I started to decay Maybe I just wanted you to stay And I wanted you to say It's alright not to be feeling fine You can't feel that way all the time What's important is that when you feel good You can pause and feel more secure And maybe when you feel assured You can be in the moment and you won't feel unsure Notice these feelings you're trying to endure Maybe it's the future you're fighting for I guess these nerves are a part of me Maybe that's why I don't feel free Tied to this anxiety And pulled down by gravity And these nerves don't have all of me 'Cause there's someone that I'm trying to be These nerves don't have all of me 'Cause there's someone I'm trying to be Trying to be
