Shut your mouth 'cause you're never quiet
You put it out when I tried to light it
This is a race that I will not lose
I'll chase it till my legs give out

What is it you want from me?
To become what you would be?
But I would rather take my chances
At running like the wind to take advantage, but until then

Shut your mouth 'cause you're never quiet
You put it out when I tried to light it
This is a race that I will not lose
I'll chase it till my legs give out

When I do what I love
I find myself looking back again
And as I wait for you all
To judge my every move that I make
You'd love to watch me go down again
And I would come to know that
You'll never support this

Go ahead and cast your little judgmental glances
I'm not defenseless
Stomp aloud and flaunt your oh-so pompous stature
I'm where perception plays an
Important role in how you control them
I'm not going to waste my breath on
Giving up to who you want me to be

Shut your mouth 'cause you're never quiet
You put it out when I tried to light it
This is a race that I will not lose
I'll chase it till my legs give out

When I do what I love
I find myself looking back again
And as I wait for you all
To judge my every move that I make
You'd love to watch me go down again
And I would come to know that
You'll never support this

It's what I want when nobody had my back
It's what I need when I'm feeling all alone
And what I want is just to know to myself
Is that nobody else will break me down

It's what I want when nobody had my back
It's what I need when I'm feeling all alone
And what I want is just to know to myself
Is that nobody else will break me down

It's what I want when nobody had my back
It's what I need when I'm feeling all alone
And what I want is just to know to myself
Is that nobody else will break me down

When I do what I love
I find myself looking back again
And as I wait for you all
To judge my every move that I make
You'd love to watch me go down again
And I would come to know that
You'll never support this
