Only six years old, I already knew,
How my life would be, what I was gonna do,
Had it all worked out, I didn't see a reason why it wouldn't come about,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
There was nothing in this world stopping me.

Fast forward to my early teens,
I'd given up on the childhood dream,
Sick of trying to fit in at school,
Always being different and never being cool,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
That I could be six years old again.

When I was everything I wanted to be,
Nothing seemed to be out of reach,
Life was simple and time was on my side.

To the little girl who loved to twirl around the bedroom dancing,
Singing all the words into her hairbrush like the world was watching,
Never lose your spark,
Never lose your smile,
Keep shining bright just like a star,
You're perfect as you are.

Started working at the local store,
A good job, but wanted so much more,
Too big for a small town,
But not knowing how to break down all the doors,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
That things would change.

Didn't wanna meet mister right,
Didn't need another reason to end up tied,
Won't settle for settling down,
When there’s a whole wide world just waiting to be found,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
Needed to remember the time.

When I was everything I wanted to be,
Nothing seemed to be out of reach,
Life was simple and time was on my side.

To the little girl who loved to twirl around the bedroom dancing,
Singing all the words into her hairbrush like the world was watching,
Never lose your spark,
Never lose your smile,
Keep shining bright just like a star,
You're perfect as you are, You're perfect as you are.

Everywhere I go,
And everything I do,
It’s like I've been looking,
Looking for you.

I didn't really know,
I didn't really care,
But it’s like you had all the answers,
The who, the when, the where.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained,
The adventure where everything changed,
The world had a way,
Of leading me straight to you.

Anywhere I go,
And anything I do,
Just doesn't come close to how I feel,
When I'm with you.

So I guess that in the end,
It was always meant to be,
I was made for you,
And you were made for me.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained,
The adventure where everything changed,
The world had a way,
Of leading me straight to you.

Dragged down to the bottom,
I was about as low as can be,
I built myself a prison,
told my friends to never visit and throw away the key.

So I count my blessings,
I see the wood from the trees,
Im making my escape,
shouldn't hesitate,
This is, this is my emergency yeah.

It's beginning to feel like a breakout, break out, And I can't take it no more,
It's beginning to feel like a break down, a break down, Time to level the score.

It's beginning to feel like a breakout, break out, And I can't take it no more,
It's beginning to feel like a breakout is happening,
A breakout is happening.

I fell down to the gutter,
So alone and bleak,
Couldn't recognise my own reflection,
Couldn't even try to speak.

So I count my blessings,
I see the wood from the trees,
Im making my escape, shouldn't hesitate,
This is, this is my emergency yeah.

It's beginning to feel like a breakout, break out, And I can't take it no more,
It's beginning to feel like a break down, a break down, Time to level the score.

It's beginning to feel like a breakout, break out, And I can't take it no more,
It's beginning to feel like a breakout is happening,
A breakout is happening.

Im chasing moonbeams in my sleep,
Making myself promises I cannot keep to,
See through until the end,
I'm losing ground to you, But bound to you.

Im chasing fake gold,
I'm coming after you,
You're making me old,
You… Got me on the run,
Got me on the run,
Got me on the run now yeah, I'm breaking rainbows in my sleep,
Waking myself up,
Trying to heat up the cold,
Your soul and everything about this empty hole.

It's got us all on the run,
It's got us all on the run.

Im chasing fake gold,
I'm coming after you,
You're making me old,
You… Got me on the run,
Got me on the run,
Got me on the run now yeah.
