I need a little bit of affirmation
To get me through this funk
I need a little extra help
To wake me up on time
Sometimes I feel like I'm choking
But I know it's just the passing time
Sometimes I feel like the lights are dimming
And in the darkness I am mine
If I wake up on time today
Will I wake up to love
If I trade in my misery
Will I trade it for love
I don't wanna be her baby
She don't wanna be mine
But as I watch all my friends caving
I think we could be fine
All I wanted was to slow this down
But you were busy being swept away
All I wanted was to watch you grow
But you wanted to stay the same
World turns and I'm scared
That I'm standing still
World turns and I'm scared
That I'm standing still
If I wake up on time today
Will I wake up to love
If I trade in my misery
Will I trade it for love
I don't wanna be her baby
She don't wanna be mine
But as I watch all my friends caving
I think we could be fine
So you say this is the best I can get?
And you think that I'm trying too hard
I should make the most of what I've got
But I'm so god damn young, I'm so god damn young
I can feel the rhythm, I'm not gonna give in
I am broken now but I will rise again
Stand strong I'll stand strong
I'm so god damn young, I'm so god damn young
