[Verse 1] I wake up every morning asking, “Is this really all I’m gonna be?” Everybody’s finding their direction, Why can’t somebody tell me mine for me? I see their pictures, see their progress, Everybody’s getting somewhere fast And I’m lying in my bedroom wondering Why my life keeps feeling like the past I tell everybody that I’m fine Then cry when nobody’s around I laugh a little louder in the daytime So nobody hears the sadness in the sound [Pre-Chorus] I swear I’m trying, I swear I am But sometimes I don't understand Why I keep running every day And somehow still feel far away [Chorus — EMOTIONAL DROP] So I dance, even when I’m falling apart Put the music over everything in my heart I smile while the tears are running down my face Trying to convince myself I’m not a waste I don’t know where I’m going I don’t know who I’m supposed to be Everybody’s moving forward While I’m stuck inside of me But I’m still dancing, still dancing tonight Even though I don’t feel alright Maybe I’m nowhere right now But I’m still here somehow So turn the music up for me Let me disappear inside the beat [Verse 2] Sometimes I wonder if I’m wasting All the time that I’ve been given I had dreams when I was younger Now I’m scared to even wish again I hate feeling like I’m behind Like everybody passed me by And I know I shouldn’t compare myself But I do it every single night I just want somebody to tell me “You’re gonna be okay, just wait” 'Cause I’m so tired of pretending That I’m not terrified I’m too late [Pre-Chorus] I swear I’m trying, I swear I am I’m doing everything I think I can But when the room gets quiet I hear every doubt inside it [Chorus — BIGGER DROP] So I dance, even when I’m falling apart Put the music over everything in my heart I smile while the tears are running down my face Trying to convince myself I’m not a waste I don’t know where I’m going I don’t know who I’m supposed to be Everybody’s moving forward While I’m stuck inside of me But I’m still dancing, still dancing tonight Even though I don’t feel alright Maybe I’m nowhere right now But I’m still here somehow So turn the music up for me Let me disappear inside the beat [Bridge — almost whispered] Maybe I don't need to have it figured out... Maybe I'm allowed to be lost... Maybe I'm allowed to take my time... Maybe being behind doesn't mean I'm gone... [FINAL DROP] I'm still here— I'm still here— Even when I don't know why I'm still breathing, Still believing, Even when I wanna hide So I'll dance with my tears I'll dance with my fears I'll dance through the years Until I find my way I don't know where I'm going But I'm not giving up tonight Maybe I haven't found my place yet... But I'm still dancing toward the light.
