Her story starts where it should end
And she keeps a bible close
And folds the pages down she needs the most
Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm
The faded walls are closing in
So in her head she leaves again
And they've painted ceilings blue and green
And brilliant colors she's never seen
And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room
Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon
You'll never be a winner if you're not in the game
Nothing ever happens if you always play it safe
Make a little space and get out of your own way
A ticket out sits on her shelf
But gathers dust upon itself
Cause chasing chance is for the brave
Maybe soon she'll feel that way
But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room
Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon
Nothing ever happens if you don't get hurt
Nothing ever happens if you never get dirty
Make a little space and go on, get out
Go on, get out
Leave what you don't need
You're free and the pieces will fall into place
You and you only
Who can make a little space and and get out of your own way
Eh eh eh 4x
She sees the sunlight through the cracks
It's only her who holds her back and
And so she takes her deepest breath
Shuts the door and walks down the steps
And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room
Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon
Nothing ever happens if you're not in the game
And nothing ever happens if you always play it safe
Make a little space and get out of your own
Oh, get out of your own way
Get out of your own
Oh, get out of your own way
Get out of your own way
Ohh oh oh oh ohh
She dreams of where she's never been Her story starts where it should end And she keeps a bible close And folds the pages down she needs the most Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm The faded walls are closing in So in her head she leaves again And they've painted ceilings blue and green And brilliant colors she's never seen And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon You'll never be a winner if you're not in the game Nothing ever happens if you always play it safe Make a little space and get out of your own way A ticket out sits on her shelf But gathers dust upon itself Cause chasing chance is for the brave Maybe soon she'll feel that way But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon Nothing ever happens if you don't get hurt Nothing ever happens if you never get dirty Make a little space and go on, get out Go on, get out Leave what you don't need You're free and the pieces will fall into place You and you only Who can make a little space and and get out of your own way Eh eh eh 4x She sees the sunlight through the cracks It's only her who holds her back and And so she takes her deepest breath Shuts the door and walks down the steps And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon Nothing ever happens if you're not in the game And nothing ever happens if you always play it safe Make a little space and get out of your own Oh, get out of your own way Get out of your own Oh, get out of your own way Get out of your own way Ohh oh oh oh ohh Explain Request ×
