lyrics

I've got these thoughts you see,
I'm starting to find who I wanna be
But everyone around me-
Their eyes are staring me down
and I can't breathe.

The city lights are shining
And these thoughts are burning up inside my mind
And so the rush of blood, it makes me want to run
Run as fast as I can

Give me something to aspire to
'Cause I need it more than I did yesterday
I need someone to inspire me
'Cause these thoughts inside my mind are making me so crazy

When it all built up inside and I thought there was no way out
You would turn to me and say "baby it's all gonna be alright"
And for a while all the nightmares stayed away
But everything is bad again today

Give me something to aspire to
'Cause I need it more than I did yesterday
I need someone to inspire me
'Cause these thoughts inside my mind are making me so crazy

I'm bringing back the hopes and fears I swore you'd never know
But after everything we've battled through we deserve to be here now
Before we met I hadn't reached the bottom yet
And thanks to you I never did
Oh thanks to you

Give me something to aspire to
'Cause I need it more than I did yesterday
I need someone to inspire me
'Cause these thoughts inside my mind are making me so crazy
