It's the only place I truly feel as though I can be me
But the way I arrived, it was overnight
I've been on my worst behaviour
I've been on my worst behaviour
If only I had been like this
Now I can hold my heart in a fist
And all the voices leave
I can finally put it on my sleeve
Oh, if only they had really seen me
Maybe they would finally believe me when I say I've won
And my father gets to see a son that he can feel proud of
He can feel proud of,
He's proud of me
This is all I ever wanted, all I ever thought I'd be
But the way that I behaved could have seemed quite the contrary
I've felt all the knives, they're out of sight
I've been on my worst behaviour
I've been on my worst behaviour
If only I had been like this
Now I can hold my heart in a fist
And all the voices leave
I can finally put it on my sleeve
Oh, if only they had really seen me
Maybe they would finally believe me when I say I've won
And my mother gets to see a son that she can feel proud of
She can feel proud of,
She's proud of me
She's proud of me
They're proud of me
They're proud of me
They're proud of me
She's proud of me
She's proud of, she's proud of
They're proud of, they're proud of
They're proud of me
They're proud of me
They're proud of me
She's proud of, they're proud of, oh woah
If only I had been like this
Now I can hold my heart in a fist
And all the voices leave
I can finally put it on my sleeve
Oh, if only they had really seen me
Then maybe they would finally believe me when I say I've won
And my family get to see why, that they can feel proud of
They can feel proud of,
They can feel proud of
They're proud of me
This is all I ever wanted, all I ever thought I'd be It's the only place I truly feel as though I can be me But the way I arrived, it was overnight I've been on my worst behaviour I've been on my worst behaviour If only I had been like this Now I can hold my heart in a fist And all the voices leave I can finally put it on my sleeve Oh, if only they had really seen me Maybe they would finally believe me when I say I've won And my father gets to see a son that he can feel proud of He can feel proud of, He's proud of me This is all I ever wanted, all I ever thought I'd be But the way that I behaved could have seemed quite the contrary I've felt all the knives, they're out of sight I've been on my worst behaviour I've been on my worst behaviour If only I had been like this Now I can hold my heart in a fist And all the voices leave I can finally put it on my sleeve Oh, if only they had really seen me Maybe they would finally believe me when I say I've won And my mother gets to see a son that she can feel proud of She can feel proud of, She's proud of me She's proud of me They're proud of me They're proud of me They're proud of me She's proud of me She's proud of, she's proud of They're proud of, they're proud of They're proud of me They're proud of me They're proud of me She's proud of, they're proud of, oh woah If only I had been like this Now I can hold my heart in a fist And all the voices leave I can finally put it on my sleeve Oh, if only they had really seen me Then maybe they would finally believe me when I say I've won And my family get to see why, that they can feel proud of They can feel proud of, They can feel proud of They're proud of me Explain Request ×
