high road

Kelly Clarkson

When I was young, my mother showed me
To become strong, you had to only
Cover your fears, don t show your lonely
Put others first
Before your own needs

It s not all bad, but I get lonely
And I get sad and I feel broken
If there s no task, I just assume one
I feel the burden perform for no one

And I walk the high road where nobody else has tread
I break my back on the things
other people say
I m getting tired always tryin to do my best
When I don t feel it, no, I don t feel it

And now I m older, I ve learned some lessons
To become stronger, you have to listen
Keep it open, don t try to hide it
And if you need love, don t try to fight it
(Don t try to fight it)

It s not all bad
But I get lonely (You re not here)
And I get sad and I feel broken
If there s no task, then I just assume one
(You re losing the battle)
I feel the burden, perform for no one

And I walk the high road where nobody else has tread
I break my back on the things
other people say
I m gettin tired always tryin to do my best
When I don t feel it, no, I don t feel it

Oh, oh

It s just my ego and my pride
I live my life in disguise
And when I m hurtin , it s incognito
So everybody thinks I m a hero

And I walk the high road where nobody knows my name
I m gettin tired of playin these stupid games
I do my best tryin to keep the world afloat
But I don t need this, no, I don t need this

Oh, woah, oh, oh
Oh, woah, oh, oh, woah
But I don t need this, yeah, I don t need this
