Lyrics

[Verse 1]

This is my life

It's not what it was before

All these feelings I've shared

And these are my dreams

That I'd never lived before

Somebody shake me 'cause I

I must be sleeping

[Chorus]

And now that we're here, it's so far away

All the struggle we thought was in vain

And all the mistakes one life contained

They all finally start to go away

And now that we're here, it's so far away

And I feel like I can face the day

And I can forgive, and I'm not ashamed

To be the person that I am today

[Verse 2]

And these are my words

That I've never said before

I think I'm doing okay

And this is the smile

That I've never shown before

Somebody shake me 'cause I

I must be sleeping

[Chorus]

Now that we're here, it's so far away

All the struggle we thought was in vain

And all the mistakes one life contained

They all finally start to go away

And now that we're here, it's so far away

And I feel like I can face the day

And I can forgive, and I'm not ashamed

To be the person that I am today

[Bridge]

I'm so afraid of waking

Please don't shake me

Afraid of waking

Please don't shake me

[Chorus]

Now that we're here, it's so far away

All the struggle we thought was in vain

And all the mistakes one life contained

They all finally start to go away

And now that we're here, it's so far away

And I feel like I can face the day

I can forgive, and I'm not ashamed

To be the person that I am today
