Sometimes, I wish I could run away from home
But I'm 21 and living on my own
Guess home is just a place inside my head
But I want to be somewhere else instead
When I get scared 'cause outside, it gets dark
And my eyes feel like windows to my heart
The pain I see comes in without a knock
And I feel asleep wishing my doors were locked
I just want someone to hold me
And tell me it's all gonna be all right
But I know that it's gonna be up to me, this time
There's a better world out there
I just haven't found it yet
But I hear whispers in the air
And I can see it in my head
If I can learn to love my fears
Maybe then I won't forget
That there's a better world out there
And I just haven't found it yet
Sometimes, I wish I could run away from home
And go some place that no one's ever known
Where everyone is loved and all are free
And life ain't always tearing at the seams
But I'm in my room and trying not to break
Patching holes, but feeling all the rain
Then I see the morning sunlight coming in
And showing me we all can start again
I just want someone to hold me
And tell me it's all gonna be all right
But I know that it's gonna be up to me, this time
There's a better world out there
I just haven't found it yet
But I hear whispers in the air
And I can see it in my head (I can see it)
I know if I can shed a tear
For someone that I've never met
That there's a better world out there
And I just haven't found it yet
I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
I'm not gonna stop 'til I find it
I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
There's a better world out there (there's a better world out there)
I just haven't found it yet (I just haven't found it yet)
But I hear whispers in the air (I hear whispers in the air)
And I can see it in my head (I can see it in my head)
If I can learn to love my fears (learn to love my fears)
Maybe then I won't forget (maybe then I won't forget)
There's a better world out there (there's a better world out there, out there)
And I just haven't found it yet (I just haven't found it yet)
