Taller

[Intro]
For the years I spent
Growing up inside
I knew
This whole time
That you were
In my mind
The person I could be
The viewpoint
I couldn't see
I knew that you’d come
And make all my problems seem smaller
But I must admit
I always thought
You'd be taller

[Verse]
Why am I still lying awake
Thinking about all my past mistakes
I thought this was all to go away
When you came

I've been ripping petals off of flowers
Just to feel like I have some sort of power
But nothing makes me feel more alive
Then saying no to everyone that I find

[Chorus]
For the years I spent
Growing up inside
I knew
This whole time
That you were
In my mind
The person I could be
The viewpoint I couldn’t see
I knew that you'd come
And make all my problems seem smaller
But I always thought you'd be taller

Why do I still carry the blame
Fear and apathy are not the same
You can do what you want with the game
It's your name
