Lyrics

(Verse 1)

I learned to smile when I was breaking

To say I’m fine when I was not

I learned to stay when they were leaving

To blame myself for what I lost

I counted scars like they were reasons

To hide my voice, to lower my head

I thought that love was always leaving

So I made friends with being sad

(Pre-Chorus)

I got tired of saying sorry

For every breath, for every dream

I got tired of feeling guilty

For being who I’m trying to be

(Chorus – più veloce, più luminoso)

I don’t wanna be the problem of my life

I don’t wanna be the reason I can’t rise

If I’ve been lost, then I can learn the way

I don’t wanna hate myself another day

I don’t wanna be the shadow in my light

I don’t wanna run from who I am inside

Maybe I’m broken, but I’m still alive

I don’t wanna be the problem of my life

(Verse 2)

I walked alone through all the questions

Asking God what I did wrong

I tried to change into their version

Just to feel like I belong

I held my tears like they were secrets

I called my fear my only friend

But every night I felt this whisper

Saying “this is not the end”

(Pre-Chorus 2)

I’m done with asking for permission

To finally exist

I’m done with living in the distance

From the girl I always missed

(Chorus – più aperto, più forte)

I don’t wanna be the problem of my life

I don’t wanna be the reason I can’t rise

If I’ve been lost, then I can learn the way

I don’t wanna hate myself another day

I don’t wanna be the shadow in my light

I don’t wanna run from who I am inside

Maybe I’m broken, but I’m still alive

I don’t wanna be the problem of my life

(Bridge – momento più intimo)

Maybe loving me is something I must learn

Maybe all this pain is something I can burn

I don’t need to be perfect to be strong

I just need to know that I belong

(Final Chorus – luminoso, liberatorio)

I don’t wanna be the problem of my life

I wanna be the reason I survive

If I’m still here, then I can start again

I don’t have to lose myself to win

I don’t wanna be afraid of every fight

I don’t wanna live like I’m a crime

Maybe I’m scared, but I’ll be fine

I don’t wanna be the problem of my life

(Outro – quasi sussurrato)

I’m not hopeless anymore

I’m just learning how to stay
