Everything I Wanted

(album: Do It Again - 2021)

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
Not what you'd think
And if I'm being honest

It might've been a nightmare
To anyone who might care

Thought I could fly
So I stepped off the Golden
Nobody cried
Nobody even noticed

I saw them standing right there
Kinda thought they might care

I had a dream
I got everything I wanted
But when I wake up I see

You with me
And you say

"As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you
Don't wanna lie here
But you can learn to
If I could change
The way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear
They don't deserve you"

I tried to scream
But my head was underwater
They called me weak
Like I'm not
Just somebody's daughter

Coulda been a nightmare
But it felt like
They were right there
And it feels like yesterday
Was a year ago
But I don't wanna let
Anybody know
'Cause everybody wants
Something from me now
And I don't wanna let 'em down

"As long as I'm here
No one can hurt you
Don't wanna lie here
But you can learn to
If I could change
The way that you see yourself
You wouldn't wonder why you hear
They don't deserve you"

If I knew it all then
Would I do it again
Would I do it again
If they knew what they said
Would go straight to my head
What would they say instead

If I knew it all then
Would I do it again
Would I do it again
If they knew what they said
Would go straight to my head
What would they say instead
