Never wanted
Anything as much as you
Never crossed my mind
That I could ever lose
I had this picture in my head
Of all the promises you made

But you turned ′em into dust
Empty handed now I′m lost
I know I gotta let go
With no regrets you′re already gone

Oh I let my dreams tie me down
Oh is it too late can I break out?
Oh they say it′s darkest of all
Before the dawn

I wanna be myself
(I don′t care)
Yeah I gotta be myself
(Just don′t care)
And now that your weight′s
Come off my shoulders
I realize that I can fly

I needed to find me
(Now I know)
The key was inside
Of me all along
I′m listening to my heart
Let it guide me
I feel the light
I feel the light

I never stopped
To find my way
I always thought it was a race
To win it all
And that you were the prize

The closer I got the more I lost
My soul it was slowly fading

I′m like the autumn leaves
Don′t know which way I′m blowing
But it don′t matter
If it′s raining or it′s snowing
All of my problems growing smaller
When I′m way up here
Any illusions I had left
About you disappeared

Oh this is the end of the road
Oh I′m holding out for a new hope
Oh ′cause it′s the darkest of all
Before the dawn

I wanna be myself
(I don′t care)
Yeah I gotta be myself
(Just don′t care)
And now that your weight′s
Come off my shoulders
I realize that I can fly

I needed to find me
(Now I know)
The key was inside
Of me all along
I′m listening to my heart
Let it guide me
I feel the light
I feel the light

Afraid to let you go
But in my heart I know
Got to move on
I think it′s time
It′s all good now

I wanna be myself
(I don′t care)
Yeah I gotta be myself
(just don′t care)
And now that I left it all behind me
I′m flying high
I′m flying high
