I don't know how to say this
It comes and goes in waves
I don't want to go on feeling sorry for myself
All I'm asking for is time
Cause I'm learning how to be me
If thoughts could tell 1000 stories
I'd have 1000 motion pictures
When did I decide it's okay
I know to you it's nothing
But I swear to me it's true
Every time I silence my shout
Can we talk about the hard things
I wanna talk about the real things
You ain't gotta live in shame
Just hold on and give it time
Cause we're learning how to be free
If thoughts could tell 1000 stories
I'd have 1000 motion pictures
When did I decide it's okay
I know to you it's nothing
But I swear to me it's true
Every time I silence my shout
(I want to talk about it)
