[Verse 1]

My shadows all I left behind

Blank stares sent shivers down my spine

I was running to get out that night

I know his heart is breaking

I promised not to break it

He is steady, I am shaking

I hate this mess but I have to make it

[Pre-Chorus]

So I'll go follow the light that leads me home

I know I am not alone

I am strong

[Chorus 1]

So I'll strike the match and watch it burn

Say goodbye to better or for worse

For once in my life I put me first

[Verse 2]

Minutes turn into wasted time

Battles cry into the night

I begin to wonder why

Why promise me that you can change

When its me that didn't stay the same

Let you tell me how to see, how to walk and how to feel

[Pre-Chorus]

So I'll go follow the light that leads me home

I know I am not alone

I am strong

[Chorus 1]

So I'll strike the match and watch it burn

Say goodbye to better or for worse

For once in my life I put me first

[Pre-Chorus]

So I'll go follow the light that leads me home

I know I am not alone

I am strong

[Chorus 2]

So I'll strike the match and watch it burn

Say goodbye to better or for worse

For once in my life I put me first

Me first

So ill strike the match and watch it burn

Say goodbye to better or for worse

For once in my life I put me first
