Light breaks through a crack in the shades
Starting off another day, it all feels the same
And she takes in the morning air
A faint smile while she does her hair, she's unaware
And she remarks, but she never complains
Her big dreams that are never vain, never change

And I picture her in her car
Singing along to her favorite rock star
She's a star

And don't let it pull you down
Don't let it burn you out
You're so much stronger than you know

Down here time moves so slow
Life could pass you by and you wouldn't know, who wouldn't know
And things change, but they rarely do
You count the days as they barely move, well do what you have to

If you feel the sudden urge to escape
A fast car and your favorite mistake
Run away

If you feel that you're needing to cry
Run to his arms, they won't ask you why
Wipe your eyes

Don't let it pull you down
Don't let it burn you out
You're so much stronger than you know

So please don't go away
Say you'll stay with me

Don't let it pull you down
Don't let it burn you out
You're so much stronger than you know

So please don't go away
Say you'll stay with me
