When they're done and left for dead
I've been out of my head
And now I wanna be bigger
Bein' here with you
It's not so hard to be
I can see my dreams
I know, I'm gonna be better
My friends always say

My friends always say
That everything will be okay
But it don't always
Work out that way
So here I am again
Believin' in, 'cause I remember when, baby

I had, the time of my life
Everything is right with you
After all that I've been through
Yeah, I ain't trying to lose
This time of my life with you

Baby, I had
People say I'm out of line
So much on my mind
Like I wanna be bigger
Sometimes it don't rhyme
But when you're here with me (here with me)
I have poetry (poetry)
I know, I'm gonna be better

And my friends always say, yeah
My friends always say
That everything will be okay
But it don't always
Work out that way
So here I am again
Believin' in (believin' in)
'Cause I remember when ('cause I remember)

Baby, I had, oh yeah

Everything is right with you

One day we will see (the giant)
The giant baby (finally see)
Finally see me smile
Hear me laughing, out loud

My voice will be heard (be heard)
It's no longer absurd
