 No, no, I,  I, I, I,  I don't want to break  when I speak
 I don't want to shake  while I'm standing
 I don't want to crawl  into another hole
 I don't  know what I'm hiding for
 No, I,  I, I, I,  I don't want to fall  when I stand
 I don't want to have  to hold your hand
 I just want to be  the girl I use to be
 When I  was me and worry free
 And  I know these burdens on my own
 But I  can't keep on running no I just  can't keep on running away  from here
I  know that the only way to beat  it is by fighting my every  fear
I'm  not going to make it 'til I turn  around and face it alone,  I know
 That I  can't keep on running, no I just  can't keep on running away
 So it stops  today
 So here I am, I'm taking  my first step
 Thought I was losing balance but  I caught myself
 I kind of like the challenge, no  I don't need help
 I'm going to make  it past the very start
 It's always  been my hardest part
 But I,  I, I, I,  I am gonna stay  in control
 I must admit this crutch  is getting old
 I am going to throw  it right out of my hand
 I'm finally  here, I understand
 I know I'll get there on my own
 But I  can't keep on running no I just  can't keep on running away  from here
I  know that the only way to beat  it is by fighting my every  fear
I'm  not going to make it 'til I turn  around and face it alone,  I know
 That I  can't just keep running, no I just  can't keep on running away
 So it stops  today
 You can hide  from all the pain
 But it will find  you anyway
  Yes, I know,  now I know
 That I  can't keep on running no I just  can't keep on running away  from here
I  know that the only way to beat  it is by fighting my every  fear
I'm  not going to make it 'til I turn  around and face it alone,  I know
 That I  can't keep on running, no I just  can't keep on running away
 So it stops  today
