This is the place I call my home This is the place where I learned to be alone The fires raged inside my head I was lying in my bed The windy trees all creaked and moaned This is the place I lost myself This is the place where I tried to be someone else Put on a show Put on a smile Make them forget I'm not as wild Put my soul high up on a shelf But I know who I am now Cuz who I am doesn't belong to smiles and crowds I was afraid to be myself To take my soul off of the shelf But I can be myself with them Cuz I find myself in You This is the place I learned to fight This is the place I learned not to hide from the light Cuz who I am is so much more Than a girl running from her own mistakes Pretending she's alright This is the place where I found God Where I met the one who sees through my facade It's been over a decade now I'm still figuring out how To express how much I am in awe Ohhhhh but I know who I am now Ohhhhh cuz who I am doesn't belong to smiles and crowds I was afraid to be myself To take my soul off of the shelf But I can be myself with them Because I find myself in You Ohhhhh because I find myself in you Yes I know who I am now Cuz who I am doesn't belong to smiles and crowds I was afraid to be myself To take my soul off of the shelf I can be myself with them Cuz I find myself in you
