[Intro]
(Don't stop being, don't stop being
Don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop being, don't stop being
Don't stop being, stop being)
[Verse 1]
Target on my back, no comfort in the silence
I wait for the attack, stay sheltered from the violence
Prayin' I'll be okay, every single night
Learning how to like myself again takes time
[Pre-Chorus]
I will dance in the sun, in the fire and rain
Finding myself in the light again
(Anything but yourself)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna waste my tears
I wanna know what it's like to say I'm all right
I won't waste my tears
I just wanna know what it's like to feel more alivе
[Post-Chorus]
Don't stop dreaming, don't start beating
Don't stop being anything but yoursеlf
(Don't stop dreaming, don't start beating
Don't stop being anything)
[Verse 2]
Target on my back, and all I hear is sirens
Like it's a heart attack
But I don't know how to fight this
Dealing with the pain every single night
Learning how to love myself again, it's been all right
[Pre-Chorus]
I will dance in the sun, in the fire and rain
Finding myself in the light again
(Anything but yourself)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna waste my tears
I wanna know what it's like to say I'm all right
I won't waste my tears
I just wanna know what it's like to feel more alive
I wanna cry for the last time over this
(Don't waste your tears, don't waste your tears)
I don't wanna waste my tears
I just wanna know what it's like to feel more alive
[Post-Chorus]
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing
Don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing
Don't stop being (Stop being, stop being)
[Bridge]
(Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing
Don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing
Don't stop being) Don't stop
[Outro]
(Don't stop being) Don't stop
(Don't stop being) Don't stop
(Don't stop being anything but yourself)
