When I was young, my mother showed me

To become strong, you had to only

Cover your fears, don't show you're lonely

Put others first before your own needs.

It's not all bad, but I get lonely

And I get sad and I feel broken

If there's no task, I just assume one

I feel the burden perform for no one.

And I walk the high road where nobody else has tread

I break my back on the things other people say

I'm getting tired always trying to do my best

When I don't feel it, no, I don't feel it.

And now I'm older I've learned some lessons

To become stronger, you have to listen

Keep it open, don't try to hide it

And if you need love, don't try to fight it.

It's not all bad, but I get lonely

And I get sad and I feel broken

If there's no task, I just assume one

I feel the burden perform for no one.

And I walk the high road where nobody else has tread

I break my back on the things other people say

I'm getting tired always trying to do my best

When I don't feel it, no, I don't feel it.

Oh, oh...

It's just my ego and my pride

I live my life in disguise

And when I'm hurting, it's incognito

So everybody thinks I'm a hero.

And I walk the high road where nobody knows my name

I'm getting tired of playing these stupid games

I do my best trying to keep the world afloat

But I don't need this, no, I don't need this.

Oh, whoa, oh, oh...

Oh, whoa, oh, oh...

Whoa, but I don't need this

Yeah, I don't need this.
