When I was young my mother showed me
To become strong you had to only
Cover your fears don't show your lonely
Put others first before your own needs
It's not all bad but I get lonely
And I get sad and I feel broken
If there's no task I just assume one
I feel the burden perform for no one
And I walk the high road where nobody else has tread
I break my back on the things other people say
I'm gettin' tired always tryin' to do my best
When I don't feel it no I don't feel it
And now I'm older I've learned some lessons
To become stronger you have to listen
Keep it open don't try to hide it
And if you need love don't try to fight it
Don't try to fight it
It's not all bad but I get lonely
You're not here
And I get sad and I feel broken
If there's no task I just assume one
You're losing the battle
I feel the burden perform for no one
And I walk the high road where nobody else has tread
I break my back on the things other people say
I'm gettin' tired always tryin' to do my best
When I don't feel it no I don't feel it
Oh oh
It's just my ego and my pride
I live my life in disguise
And when I'm hurtin' it's incognito
So everybody thinks I'm a hero
And I walk the high road where nobody knows my name
I'm gettin' tired of playing these stupid games
I do my best tryin' to keep the world afloat
But I don't need this no I don't need this
Oh woah oh oh
Oh woah oh oh
Woah but I don't need this
Yeah I don't need this
