"The Power" lyrics

You can try to live your life on the side
I guess I'm sad
Every now and then when I'm feeling down
I see it right and say it
Walking off the fog of a foggy mind
I'm not down now

I've stopped giving you the power
I guess I'm stronger
All the time you've spent hiding under
I don't listen now
Saying

Where would I be if I didn't
Walk on by at the sight of me?
All discretions, all a lie
And suddenly you're outta me

I've stopped giving you the power
I should be strong now
Fly away without wings, I'm lighter
I guess I'm gone

'Cause all the scars since have had a minute to heal
Let them turn tougher than skin
And all the nights circle 'round the words
And you've said them all, I've learned everything
I've learned everything

I hope I'm stronger now
All the time you spend hiding under
I don't listen now
Saying

Where would I be if I didn't
Let the both of us decide for me?
Now I'm conscious, I've decided
Finally you're out of me

I've stopped giving you the power
I think I'm stronger now
Fly away without wings, I'm lighter
I know I'm strong now

And all the dark clouds around
I'll leave them with you
Let them turn as bright as you want
'Cause all your thoughts circle around the worst
And I've heard it all, I've learned everything
