[Verse 1]
It was all so blue
Got used to the way I looked, wearing a dark mood
And it all felt true
All the shadows and the bad notes I sang for you
Well, you wanted me small
So you could feel like someone at all
And I played along
And normalized, telling myself I was wrong

[Chorus]
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun

[Verse 2]
Used to just make do
On a steady stream of stress dreams and twisted truths
Now it's all so new
I'm uncomfortable any time I hear good news
I get the ache of healing and the pain of hurting confused
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
I am the sun
[Bridge]
Feeling good doesn't feel bad anymore
Feeling good doesn't feel bad anymore
Just like the dawn and my heart was worth
Breaking for

[Chorus]
Don't try to tell me how I'm feeling
I'm done playing a game that can't be won
Now I'll rewrite what I believe in
I thought I was the light switch you turned on
But I am the sun
I am the sun
