small
when your voice is born
don’t you let them fool you girl
‘cause i know that you’ll feel like keeping quiet
and live in your head
when the folks in town all say
maybe she’s just shy
hiding in those books of hers
well i hope that your screams create a song
not a scar instead
oh what you don’t know now
that i wish i could tell you
go and tell those thoughts to
run run far
one day you’ll be singing songs
that tell the world just who you are
cause you’re not so small now
cause you’re not so small now
when you walk in shame
cause of your identity
honey yeah you're different
but oh you make a difference
because of that
when the world around you seems
to romanticize
certain pain
and call it victory
your skin is a sculpture
and oh it doesn’t need more chipping at
oh what you don’t know now
that i wish i could tell you
go and tell those thoughts to
run run far
one day you’ll be singing songs
that tell the world just who you are
cause you’re not so small now
cause you’re not so small now
i know you wanted something beautiful
and it’s coming, it’s coming
i know you can’t see just how beautiful
you’re becoming, becoming
(x2)
cause you’re not so small now.
