Moving On

I'm sitting in a dark room thinking about who I'm supposed to be

And how much that means to me

Feeling like the outside's looking in

Staring a hole through me

But I can't tell what they see

They'll take the time to look you in the eye and try to break you as a man

I'm just doing the best I can

But I'm held by the fear that's keeping me here

Pressing me under my own thumb

Well I will not succumb

I've gotta keep moving on to higher ground

Starting today, making my way

Ain't no reason to be stuck around

Letting life get away (fading away)

Gotta keep moving on to higher ground

No matter what they say,

I'm gonna keep moving anyway

Well everyday it feels like everyone's moving in separate ways.

But still trying to make me stay.

Well, I'm losing all my daylight thinking about what other people say

It's all too much for me

Oh I worried about facts and how will they react

To the man that I’m trying to be today

That can't be the way

I gotta keep moving on to higher ground

Starting today, and make my way

Ain't no reason to be stuck around

Letting life get away (fading away)

Especially when every single day

Is a gift, not a promise, wouldn't you say?

And I just cannot let myself get in the way

Of enjoying this life my way (yeah)

I've been so scared of being my self today

I've been way too scared of living my life my way

I've been so scared of doing the things my heart say

I've been way too scared but not anymore!

Gotta keep moving on to higher ground

Starting today, making my way

Ain't no reason to be stuck around

Letting life get away (fading away)

Gotta keep moving on to higher ground

That's the only way I know I'll be okay

But I don't wanna fade away

I don't wanna fade away...

I don't wanna fade...
