Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Listen to the song here in my heart

A melody I start but can't complete

[Verse 2]

Listen to the sound from deep within

It's only beginning to find release

[PreChorus]

Oh, the time has come for my dreams to be heard

They will not be pushed aside and turned

Into your own, all 'cause you won't listen

[Chorus]

Listen, I am alone at a crossroads

I'm not at home in my own home

And I've tried and tried to say what's on my mind

You should have known

Oh, now I'm done believin' you

You don't know what I'm feelin'

I'm more than what you made of me

I followed the voice you gave to me

But now I've gotta find my own

[Verse 3]

You should have listened, there is someone here inside

Someone I thought had died so long ago

[PreChorus]

Oh, I'm screaming out and my dreams will be heard

They will not be pushed aside or worse

Into your own, all 'cause you won't listen

[Chorus]

Listen, I am alone at a crossroads

I'm not at home in my own home

And I've tried and tried to say what's on my mind

You should have known

Oh, now I'm done believin' you

You don't know what I'm feelin'

I'm more than what you made of me

I followed the voice you gave to me

But now I've gotta find my own

[Bridge]

I don't know where I belong

But I'll be moving on

If you don't, if you won't

[Chorus]

Listen to the song here in my heart

A melody I start but I will complete

Oh, now I'm done believin' you

You don't know what I'm feelin'

I'm more than what you made of me

I followed the voice you think you gave to me

But now I've gotta find my own

My own
