Sometimes a silence seems so loud to me
And I'm thinking out loud and I'm trying to keep
Too much reflection isn't healthy for me
Present and future is where I need to be
Oh, I'm starting this story
I'm gonna fill it with glory
'Cause there's no place to go but up
And I'm changing my outlook
'Cause looking in wasn't always a good place to go
And I hold my head now
With a tear in my eye
'Cause I don't really care no more
Oh, it's those little things
That eat at your soul
And I'm not gonna worry about them no more
I came a long way
Came a long way
Came a long way
Came a long way
Day by day, living this way, I'm gonna carry on
I'm, I'm taking my time
Gonna do things just right
I'm gonna carry on, oh, oh
♪
Oh my head's always been filled with worry
And I think it apart and it will always bleed
I got no expectations, ain't got no regrets
When I was living that way, I wasn't living at all
Well I'm starting this story
I'm gonna fill it with glory
'Cause there's no place to go but up
And I'm changing my outlook
'Cause looking in wasn't always a good place to go
And I hold my head now
With a tear in my eye
'Cause I don't really care no more
Oh, it's those little things
That eat at your soul
And I'm not gonna worry about them no more
I came a long way
Came a long way
Came a long way
Came a long way
Day by day, living this way
I'm gonna carry on
I'm, I'm taking my time
Gonna do things just right
I'm gonna carry on, oh, oh
Into this space, let me discover
Don't want to erase, by another
And then you find you're there in your life
Oh, how did I get here?
