Here I am on the beach

I was sinking for so long it felt like a week

I was waiting for something waiting for me

But my chain isn't locked anymore I'm released

And I

Found a horde of invisible treasures

No it's not gold but I know that it's better

What's waiting for me is the knowledge I left

And the person I had to become to be better

And this isn't a note to myself or a letter to write cause I'm here cutting ties

It's the dead of the night and I'm seeing the light with no worries in sight I'll just keep my head up like I'm supposed to I'll fight

And I'll do so accordingly

Sadness is boring me there's nothing more to see

If I can just quit while I'm winning

My head won't stop spinning

Until I can learn

Maybe it's not so bad

Maybe it's not so bad

I've spent too much time wanting things that I've never had

Putting it all in my bag

It isn't that

Maybe it's not so bad

Maybe it's not so bad

Making a use for the things I've been given I'm grateful I'm happy I used to be sad

I used to be sad

Cause the things in my life never worked

I was mad cause at 17 I had to learn how to clean up the blood on my shirt

Now I'm glad cause I learned how to make something out of my life when It hurts

If you take all the positives out of your struggles I promise that you'll find your worth

Now that I've gathered my gifts

Put my name on a list

Make sure that everyone sees what I've done with my pain and they learn from it

No tell them this

I've came a long way from the chapel

And maybe I've changed just a bit

The me that I was got the boot

Yeah I and said goodbye before I blew a kiss

Maybe it's not so bad

Maybe it's not so bad

I've spent too much time wanting things that I've never had

Putting it all in my bag

It isn't that

Maybe it's not so bad

Maybe it's not so bad

Making a use for the things I've been given I'm grateful I'm happy I used to be sad
