tell you

just turned 16, headstrong, taking on the world alone, hoping for a good girl, to come along, turn this dirt into a throne, but i'm stumbling for words to say to you, and i wish i could tell you, every little thing, my fears, my hopes, my insecurities, and i wish i could show you, the broken pieces of my heart, that underneath, i'm not that strong, but i can't, cause i'm so scared, and i'm so lost, i just wish i could, i just wish i could, i wish i could tell you, just shy of 17, guarded, falling through the world alone, bounced into a bad boy, open hearted, wanna give him a home, but i'm stumbling for words to say to you, and i wish i could tell you, every little thing, my fears, my hopes, my insecurities, and i wish i could show you, the broken pieces of my heart, that underneath, i'm not that strong, but i can't, cause i'm so scared, and i'm so lost, i just wish i could, i just wish i could, i wish i could tell you, stumbling for words, searching for heart, trying to stand tall, wanting to have it to all, hoping for grace, begging for time, running away from harm, running into your arms, now i can tell you, every little thing, my fears, my hopes, my insecurities, now i can show you, the broken pieces of my heart, and over time it'd become strong, and i'm no longer, so scared, or so lost, and now that i can, now that i can, now i can tell you, now that i can, now that i can, now i can tell you, just turned 16, headstrong, taking on the world alone
