What Does My Heart Say
[Verse 1]
Follow you heart they say
Do what you love
And you won't work a day
Follow your dreams they preach
Same old lesson so easy to teach
But what about those
Who don't get a choice
Decisions made for us
Since we were little boys
Spending our lives with a voice inside
Thinking maybe I should try

[Refrain]
I don't know
I'm unsure
What my future's gonna be
But I know this
I can't stand around
And let it pass by me
I am young
Still got time
Should I stay and wait and see?
Should I change my life for me?

[Chorus]
What does my heart say?
What does my heart say-y-y-y-y-y
[Verse 2]
Disappointment
We avoid it
All for love in our parent's eyes
Play along though
It feel wrong and
We give into a life of lies
Fires burn
Tables turn and
I've come to learn that
Maybe it's not for me
I wanna change my life
Maybe I should try
Maybe I should try

[Refrain]
But I don't know
I'm unsure
What my future's gonna be
But I know this
I can't stand around
And let it pass by me
I am young
Still got time
Should I stay and wait and see?
Or should I change my life for me?
[Chorus]
What does my heart say?
What does my heart say-y-y-y-y-y

[Bridge]
Fear, fear is what holds us down
Leaving us safe and sound
We fear it all
Fear, fear of the disapproving mind
Fear of the things we leave behind
Too scared to rise out of fear that will fall
Cause we fear rejection
We fear depression
We fear regret and mistake and
Forget it's okay to be reckless
When life feels intense and though we fear failure
Easy ways never made a good
Wanna fly but I won't leave the floor
Wanna go but don't open the door
What am I waiting for-r-r-r-r!

[Refrain]
Now I know
Now I'm sure
That this future's not for me
But I know this
I can't stand around and
Let life pass by me
I am young
Now's the time
I can't stay and wait and see
Needa change my life (Change my life)
Needa change my life. (Change my life)
Needa change my life-e, for me
[Outro]
My heart says go
My heart says go
My heart says go
My heart, my heart, my heart says go (Go)
I'm out! [Spoken]
Ahh [Harmonised]
