"Tell You" lyrics

Just turned 16
Headstrong
Taking on the world alone

Hoping for a good girl
To come along
Turn this dirt into a throne

But I'm stumbling for words to say to you

And I wish I could tell you
Every little thing
My fears, my hopes, my insecurities
And I wish I could show you
The broken pieces of my heart
That underneath, I'm not that strong
But I can't
Cause I'm so scared (so scared)
And I'm so lost (lost)
I just wish I could
I just wish I could
I wish I could tell you

Just shy of 17
Guarded
Falling through the world alone

Bounced into a bad boy
Open hearted
Wanna give him a home

But I'm stumbling for words to say to you

And I wish I could tell you
Every little thing
My fears, my hopes, my insecurities
And I wish I could show you
The broken pieces of my heart
That underneath, I'm not that strong
But I can't
Cause I'm so scared (so scared)
And I'm so lost (lost)
I just wish I could
I just wish I could
I wish I could tell you

Stumbling for words
Searching for heart
Trying to stand tall
Wanting to have it to all

Hoping for grace
Begging for time
Running away from harm
Running into your arms

Now I can tell you
Every little thing
My fears, my hopes, my insecurities
Now I can show you
The broken pieces of my heart
And over time it'd become strong
And I'm no longer
So scared
Or so lost
And now that I can
Now that I can
Now I can tell you
Now that I can
Now that I can
Now I can tell you

Just turned 16
Headstrong
Taking on the world alone
