All my life, I've been fighting a war
I can't talk to you or your friends, it's not only you
My heart jumps around when I'm alluded to
This will not do

Cause I was raised up to be admired, to be noticed
But when you're withdrawn it's the closest thing
To a soap when our lives are on you
This will not do

I'm thinking glory
Lick my lips, toss my hair
And send a smile over
And the story's brand new
That I can take it from here
I'll find my own bravado

It's a switch flipped, it's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipsed
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
It's in your blood stream, a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
Its a marathon run or a mountain your scale without thinking of size

I was fighting off every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me but
I've learned not to want the quiet of the room or no-one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go

It's a switch flipped, it's a pill tipped back, it's a moon eclipsed
And I can tell you that when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
It's in your blood stream, a collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
Its a marathon run or a mountain your scale without thinking of size

I was fighting off every little thing that I thought was out to get me down
To trip me up and laugh at me but
I've learned not to want the quiet of the room or no-one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go
