Faster Than Falling

Verse 1] Everybody says I'm way too young, Like they already know what I'll become. Pat me on the head, tell me, "You'll get there..." Like I haven't fought to breathe this air. I learned real fast not to ask "why," Just lace 'em up and outrun goodbye. If the world's too tall, I'll roll right through, Guess I've got nothing left to prove... Except to you. [Pre-Chorus] I don't need saving... I just need somebody... To stop pretending... I'm still somebody's baby. [Chorus] I'm skating faster than falling, Heart still cracks but I keep calling. Every scar's another map, Showing me I made it back. I'm not broken— I'm just bent. Still got dreams that heaven sent. If tomorrow wants a fight... Tell tomorrow... I'll be there tonight. [Verse 2] One more hoodie, headphones on, Hide my tears inside this song. Turn it loud enough to drown Every voice that talks me down. They all see somebody small, Never see me standing tall. Maybe height don't mean a thing When you've learned to grow your wings. [Pre-Chorus] I still get scared... More than I'll admit. But courage isn't... Never feeling it. [Chorus] I'm skating faster than falling, Heart still cracks but I keep calling. Every scar's another map, Showing me I made it back. I'm not broken— I'm just bent. Still got dreams that heaven sent. If tomorrow wants a fight... Tell tomorrow... I'll be there tonight. [Bridge] Maybe I was never meant To fit inside somebody else's plan. Maybe every little crack Just lets more light come pouring in. If I fall... I'll get back up. I've done it... Every single time. [Final Chorus] I'm skating faster than falling! Won't let fear become my calling! Every mile, every bruise, Every battle that I choose... Made me stronger... Made me free. Finally becoming me. If tomorrow wants a fight... Tell tomorrow... I'm already on my way. [Outro] (Soft vocal with distant guitar) Keep rolling... Don't look back... You'll find your people... They'll find you too...
