[Verse 1]
I was born old in a world as young as a growing child
Everybody is seeking something and I don't know where to hide
I was born calm in a world as loud as a crowded street
Every time I go out there oh it carries me off my feet
And I was born dark in a world at white as my neighbors' wall
All this time I've been waiting for a ship to take me home

[Chorus]
I don't want to be afraid no more
I wanna break out and rise up to the skies
I don't want to feel this pain no more
I wanna stay up there and close my eyes
And let the world dance around me

[Verse 2]
I was born steady in a world that always keeps on changing
If you don't don't go along for a while one day you become a stranger
I was born in a world that is told between thе lines
So I'll write till I'm finally free from a story that's not mine

[Chorus]
I don't want to be afraid no more
I wanna break out and rise up to the skies
I don't want to feel this pain no more
I wanna stay up there and close my eyes
[Bridge]
If I could choose where I was born
I would choose a place that knows no fear
But since this change is mine to live
It would be nowhere else but here

[Chorus]
I don't want to be afraid no more
I wanna break out and rise up to the skies
I don't want to feel this pain no more
I wanna stay up there and close my eyes
And let the world dance around me
I don't want to be afraid no more
I wanna break out and rise up to the skies
I don't want to feel this pain no more
I wanna stay up there and close my eyes
I don't want to be afraid no more
I wanna break out and rise up to the skies
I don't want to feel this pain no more
I wanna stay up there and close my eyes
And let the world dance around me
