Verse 1
I’m watching my life like it’s passing me by
Same streets, same nights, same reasons why
I say I’m fine but I feel it underneath
Like I’m meant for more than this repeating
I don’t wanna wake up years from now
Still wondering who I’d be if I got out
If I took the risk, if I didn’t stay
If I didn’t let fear decide my place
Pre-Chorus
Everyone says “you’ve got time, just breathe”
But what if time doesn’t wait for me?
Chorus
I don’t wanna live a life half-felt
Play it safe and call it help
I want chaos, I want change
Something real I didn’t plan
I don’t wanna look back wishing I tried
Or feel like I slowly let me die
I want everything I said I’d be
I just don’t know how to get there yet
⸻
Verse 2
I’ve been stuck between comfort and escape
Too scared to leave, too scared to stay
I overthink every single move
Till I talk myself out of what I want to do
And I hate that voice inside my head
That tells me I’m better off instead
Just staying small, just staying known
But I don’t think I was built for that at all
⸻
Pre-Chorus
What if the life I want’s not far?
What if I’m just where my fears are?
⸻
Chorus
I don’t wanna live a life half-felt
Play it safe and call it help
I want chaos, I want change
Something real I didn’t plan
I don’t wanna look back wishing I tried
Or feel like I slowly let me die
I want everything I said I’d be
I just don’t know how to get there yet
⸻
Bridge
Maybe I’m closer than I think I am
Maybe I just need to take the chance
Even if it all falls through my hands
At least I’ll know I didn’t stand still
⸻
Final Chorus (bigger)
I don’t wanna live a life half-felt
I don’t wanna be somebody else
I want moments I can’t control
I want a life that feels like mine
I don’t wanna fade into “what if”
Or settle down with “this is it”
I want everything I said I’d be
And I think it’s still inside of me
