Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wake up in the quiet
Same ceiling
Same old doubt
Wear my brave face like a costume
Till the lights all burn out
Every mirror feels like judgment
Every step a test I fail
But there’s a fire in the corner
Of a heart that won’t stay pale
[Pre-Chorus]
What if I’m bigger than the fear I chase
What if this small town skin
Is just my first embrace
[Chorus]
I wanna be the hero in my story
Not the shadow walking off the screen
I’m tired of hiding all this broken glory
I’m more than every “almost” that you’ve seen
Give me one loud
Loud
Loud night
Where I stand up and I don’t hide
I’m gonna prove I’m more than “almost”
I am worthy of the spotlight (oh-oh)
I am worthy of the spotlight
[Verse 2]
I’ve rehearsed a thousand comebacks
To the voices in my head
They say
“Who do you think you are?”
I say
“Watch me prove it instead”
Every scar a secret weapon
Every teardrop
Gasoline
I’ll light up all of this silence
Turn the hurt to something clean
[Pre-Chorus]
What if I’m bigger than the fear I chase
What if this cracked-up heart
Becomes my saving grace
[Chorus]
I wanna be the hero in my story
Not the shadow walking off the screen
I’m tired of hiding all this broken glory
I’m more than every “almost” that you’ve seen
Give me one loud
Loud
Loud night
Where I stand up and I don’t hide
I’m gonna prove I’m more than “almost”
I am worthy of the spotlight (hey!)
I am worthy of the spotlight
[Bridge]
One day I’ll hear my own name
And it won’t sound strange in my ears
I’ll look back at all this aching
See a staircase made from years
If I shake
I’ll shake in daylight
If I cry
I’ll cry onstage
But I’ll know I didn’t vanish
I chose to turn the page (oh-oh)
[Chorus]
I’m gonna be the hero in my story
Not the shadow walking off the screen
I’ve been hiding all this broken glory
Now it’s burning through the seams
This is my loud
Loud
Loud night
I stand up and I don’t hide
I’m gonna show I’m more than “almost”
I am worthy of the spotlight
Yeah
I’m worthy of the spotlight (oh-oh)
I am worthy of the spotlight
