Lyrics
I was walking alone
Down a broken road
Don’t/Didn’t know what I was looking for
But I couldn’t let it go

Standing on the edge of it
Can’t feel my feet on the floor
Even though it’s closed to me, I’m
standing at an open door

I wanna go high
I wanna see clear
I wanna be anyplace but here

But I gave up my power
Abandoned myself
I started to act like somebody else

I was alone ‘til I came out the shadows
I was hollow, just dust and bones
But I’m not looking for your validation
Built my house from your sticks and stones

I’ve made my way through the storm
I need the feel of the sun beating down on my face
You don’t have to meet me there, But...
I gotta find my place

I’m gonna go high
I’m seein’ it clear
Don’t wanna be anywhere but (HAIR) here

I was alone ‘til I came out the shadows
I was hollow, just dust and bones
I’m not looking for your validation
Built my house from your sticks and stones
Built my house from your sticks and stones

All these scars I have earned
Are the lessons I’ve learned
Not afraid to get burned
Cause I am fire
x2

Can you tell me what’s in it for you?
Can you show me why you gotta come down (on me)?
I’m not defined by my limitations
Built my house out of your sticks and stones

I was alone ‘til I came out the shadows
I was hallow, just dust and bones
I’m not looking for your validation
Built my house from your sticks and stones
Built my house out of your sticks and stones

Now I’m walking alone
Down an open road / through an open door
Finally found what I was looking for
And I’ve let it go
