Pulled my heart from the bottom drawer
Dusted off all the notes and scars
I've been shrinking just to fit their frames
Till my name disappeared from my own arms
I've been tired of the careful smiles
Biting back every word I think
Watching dreams circling the bathroom drain
While I stare at my shoes by the sink
I'm burning up
I'm done behaving
I feel the spark like a roar in my chest
If I'm too much
Then I'm worth saving
I'll take up space
Yeah
I'll be my own best
I was so small
Now I'm breaking the cage
Cut my own key out of all of this pain
I'm wide awake
I'm done with the shame
I'm wide awake with this fire in my veins (oh-oh)
All the shoulds written on my skin
Faded words that were never mine
I've been running on apologies
Now I'm running on the power I find
In the mirror there's a stranger girl
But her eyes got a brand-new glow
She's a riot in a thrift-store dress
She's the storm that forgot to stay low (hey)
I'm burning up
I'm done behaving
I feel the spark like a roar in my chest
If I'm too much
Then I'm worth saving
I'll take up space
Yeah
I'll be my own best
I was so small
Now I'm breaking the cage
Cut my own key out of all of this pain
I'm wide awake
I'm done with the shame
I'm wide awake with this fire in my veins (oh-oh)
Who said I had to ask permission
Just to breathe in my own rhythm
Who said I had to dim this vision
Just to make them feel okay
I'm not your quiet little secret
I'm not here just to keep the peace
If my joy makes you uncomfortable
Watch me turning up the heat (yeah)
I'm burning up
I'm done behaving
I feel the spark like a roar in my chest
If I'm too much
Then I'm worth saving
I'll take up space
Yeah
I'll be my own best
I was so small
Now I'm breaking the cage
Cut my own key out of all of this pain
I'm wide awake
I'm done with the shame
I'm wide awake with this fire in my veins (oh-oh)
I'm wide awake
I'm done with the shame
I'm wide awake with this fire in my veins
