[verse 1]
Tear out your hair
If you can't bare anymore
It's the same as yesterday
It stays around
Locks the door
See, now here is the fear
That you live with every year
And you wonder if you'll make it out alive

[pre-Chorus 1]
A change'll do, a change of scenery'll free you
But there's never one way to roll
So find a way to take a picture of a moment
That you know you can't control

[Chorus:]
And take a minute to reflect in your own way
Take your time and connect in your own way
I know it's good to be alone some days
But you got a long face in your own way, baby
I know you got a big heart in your own way
Independent and smart in your own way
And even though you get along somehow
You're missing out now in your own way, baby
[verse 2]
Straight from the gate
You were told not to relate
Or reveal the feelings that
Could only more
Complicate
You turned to stone just to feel
Somehow permanent and real
And you hate all those who'd ever dare remind

[pre-Chorus 2]
A lotta little things are coming into focus
And you hope you don't see 'em all
A matter of a certain better situation
Lean your weight against the wall

[Chorus:]
And take a minute to reflect in your own way
Take your time and connect in your own way
I know it's good to be alone some days
But you got a long face in your own way, baby
I know you got a big heart in your own way
Independent and smart in your own way
And even though you get along somehow
You're missing out now in your own way, baby
[Bridge:]
Am I the same as you to a degree?
You stay to wave me through, you make me free
Are we the last ones, then, to see that place
And when I fall down on my face, am I home?

[Chorus:]
And take a minute to reflect in your own way
Take your time and connect in your own way
I know it's good to be alone some days
But you got a long face in your own way, baby
I know you got a big heart in your own way
Independent and smart in your own way
And even though you get along somehow
You're missing out now in your own way, baby
