There's a world outside
And I know, 'cause I've heard talk
In my sweetest dream
I would go out for a walk
But I don't think I'm ready yet
Not feelin' up to it now
Just not that steady yet
And I don't need you telling me how
There's some happiness
If my stone face cracks again
Maybe some time sooner or later
But I don't think I'm ready yet
I'm not feelin' up to it now
Just not that steady yet
And I don't need You telling me how
So if I leave my room
Don't you tell me to lighten up
Maybe some time sooner or later
But I don't think I'm ready yet
Not feelin' up to it now
Just not that steady yet
I don't need you telling me how
I don't need you telling me how
I don't need you telling me how
I don't need you telling me how
I don't need you telling me how
I don't need you telling me how
I don't need you telling me how
I don't, don't need you telling me how
