[Intro] [Verse 1] I memorized the rhythm of your breathing I studied every shadow on your face I made myself a ghost just to fit inside your space I thought if I was quiet, I thought if I was good You’d finally see the person standing where I stood But I was just a planet spinning 'round your sun Waiting for a morning that would never come [Pre-Chorus] I blamed the mirror for the things I lacked I carried all your silence on my back But then I took a step away... And the colors started rushing back to gray! [Chorus] Suddenly the world is loud and bright! I’m stepping out of your spotlight into the light! I made you a giant, I made you a king But you were only standing on the songs I’d sing Now the ocean is calling, the city is awake I’ve got a life to live and a heart to retake I thought you were the sky, the earth, and the span... But looking at you now? You’re just a man. [Verse 2] I bought a ticket to a movie you would hate I ordered dinner, didn't worry 'bout the weight I’m laughing with strangers, I’m dancing in the street I forgot how good it feels to feel the heat! Your opinion is a whisper in a hurricane I’m walking through the fire and I don’t feel pain! [Pre-Chorus] I blamed the mirror for the things I lacked But I’m never, ever, ever going back! [Chorus] Suddenly the world is loud and bright! I’m stepping out of your spotlight into the light! I made you a giant, I made you a king But you were only standing on the songs I’d sing Now the ocean is calling, the city is awake I’ve got a life to live and a heart to retake I thought you were the sky, the earth, and the span... But looking at you now? You’re just a man! [Bridge] It wasn’t me who was broken It wasn’t me who was small I was just trying to catch you But you were never falling at all! You were never falling at aaaaaall! **YEAH!** [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] Suddenly the world is loud and bright! I’m stepping out of your spotlight into the light! I made you a giant, I made you a king But looking at you now? Looking at you now?! You're just a man! [Outro] The world is waiting. And I'm finally on my way.
