Little girl, I know your hiding behind the chambers of my heart

And I know the world looks scary outside

but don't forget there's also a little sunlight.

And I know you're the kid inside of me

that when I'm around grownups makes me feel,

I should puff out my chest and preorder my dominance

But right beside us there's another fire that's telling us

we should break out, be brave and free,

and I really, really want that sense to be me,

but I know we have to share our insecurities

That's why I lie at midnight, thinking 'bout our dreams

But when the sun breaks through you pull me back and say our coins are few

But little girl, you're just pulling us into the boring old blue,

and I want to be more than this but what you don't understand

Is that my fire is kindred and wants to explore new lands.
