Just turned 16
Headstrong
Taking on the world alone
Hoping for a good girl
To come along
Turn this dirt into a throne
But I'm stumbling for words to say to you
And I wish I could tell you
Every little thing
My fears, my hopes, my insecurities
And I wish I could show you
The broken pieces of my heart
That underneath, I'm not that strong
But I can't
Cause I'm so scared (so scared)
And I'm so lost (lost)
I just wish I could
I just wish I could
I wish I could tell you
Just shy of 17
Guarded
Falling through the world alone
Bounced into a big boy
Open hearted
Wanna give him a home
But I'm stumbling for words to say to him
And I wish I could tell you
Every little thing
My fears, my hopes, my insecurities
And I wish I could show you
The broken pieces of my heart
That underneath, I'm not that strong
But I can't
Cause I'm so scared (so scared)
And I'm so lost (lost)
I just wish I could
I just wish I could
I wish I could tell you
Stumbling for words
Searching for heart
Trying to stand tall
Wanting to have it all
Hoping for grace
Planning for time
Running away from home
Running into your arms
Now I can tell you
Every little thing
My fears, my hopes, my insecurities
Now I can show you
The broken pieces of my heart
And over time it becomes strong
And I'm no longer
So scared
Or so lost
And now that I can
Now that I can
Now I can tell you
Now that I can
Now that I can
Now I can tell you
Just turned 16
