…know, I know a few things
And I can feel it
Coming towards me
It took me so long to get here but here I am
(It took me so long I…
…can't believe it)
It took me so long to get here but here I am
(It took me so long but here I am)
Everything I tried…
…and
All the things I dreamed of
(It took me so long I can't believe it)
It took me so long to get here but here I am
If I could do…

All my life I have paid my dues - Goodbye
But here I am
To go my way
But here I am
I am sick of being here to pay
Never try…
…treat ourselves - That's right
But here I am
To go my way
But here I am
I am sick of being here to stay…

You said me, that i don't have to wait, for you
You said me, that i don't have to wait, for you
But here i am
But here i am
But here…
…i am
But here i am
But here i am
But here i am
You said me, that i don't have to wait, for you
You said me, that i don't…
…have to wait, for you
But here i am
But here i am
But here i am
But here i am
But here i am
But here i am
You said me, that i don't…

…and I know I'm alive
And I know I'm alright
[Bridge]
I feel like nothing makes sense
But here I am, saying it again
People look…
…to me for answers
So I fake it and tell them that I know it's okay
I feel like nothing makes sense
But here I am, doubting me again…
Well, up to this point, everything has been fine
But here I am, scared out my mind
I feel like nothing makes sense
But here I am…

…in my hands
But here I am send me
I'm in Jacob's dream seeing
Heaven's gate
Let me climb all night
On my ladder of faith
Wrestle…
Invade me serenade me
I'm giving back my life
Here I am send me
Here I am send me
There's nothing in my hands
But here I am send…
So here I am send me
Here I am send me
There's nothing in my hands
But here I am send me
Here I am send me
Here I am send me…

…white shirt heart like stone
Wearing fake designer and pearls
I've loved, I've lost and loved again
But here I am on my own
I feel…
…and loved again
But here I am, here I stand
I've loved, I've lost and loved again
But here I am, another lesson learned
Another lesson…
…I am on my own.
I've loved, I've lost and loved again
But here I am, here I stand
I've loved, I've lost and loved again
But here I am…

…by themselves
Sometimes I turn into someone else
I never meant to take clothes off
But here I am in all my glory
I never meant…
…to take a week off
But here I am, it's friday morning
Mama taught me right
Wondering why I'm talking to strangers
Not painting picket…
Strange how these things happen by themselves
Sometimes I turn into someone else
I never meant to take clothes off
But here I am…

…I am again
Praying for wings to fly
Oh, I'll never be an angel
But here I am again
Praying for change in my life
I…
…I am again
Praying for wings to fly
Oh, I'll never be an angel
But here I am again
Praying for change in my life
I…
…need a change, I need a change
I need a change, I need a change ooooh
Oh, I'll never be an angel
But here I am again
Praying…

And not just on the surface
[Chorus]
I've loved, I've lost, and loved again
But here I am, here I stand
I've loved, I've lost…
…and loved again
But here I am, another lesson learned, another lesson learned
[Verse 3]
I feel like Elizabeth Taylor at the after party…
…and I wish that you stayed
[Pre-Chorus]
I've loved, I've lost, and loved again
But here I am, on my own
[Chorus]
I've loved, I've lost…

…mistakes, I know, I know
But here I am alive
So many people close to me cut me down
This is supposed to be a bad luck town
I jumped, I…
…fell, I hit the ground
But here I am alive
If I could write to myself when I was on top of it all,
I'd say you're going overboard…
…don't grow up you just grow old
It's safe to say I haven't done both
I made mistakes, I know, I know
But here I am alive
So many…

…[Chorus: Familypet]
They say life is what you make it, but
Here I am in my basement, oh
Every night I'm fucking wasted, thinking…
All my best years were wasted on you
They say life is what you make it, but
Here I am in my basement, oh
Every night I'm fucking…
…]
They say life is what you make it, but
Here I am in my basement, oh
Every night I'm fucking wasted, thinking
All my best years were…

…it makes us mad
I didn't think I would miss a pond so much
But here I am missing you
You were a great pond, you treated us well…
But now you're gone, and it's giving us hell
I didn't think I would be oofing this much
But here I am missing you
[Verse 2: Da Real…
…yeah it makes us mad
I didn't think I would miss a pond so much
But here I am missing you
You were a great pond, you treated us…

I'll never settle down,
That's what I always thought
Yeah, I was that kind of man,
just ask anyone
I don't dance, But here I am…
…feet
And waltzed away with my heart
No, I don't dance, but here I am
Spinning you around and around in circles
It ain't my style…
…don't dance
Ooh
I don't dance, but here I am
Spinning you around and around in circles
It ain't my style, but I don't care
I'd do…

Through all the stars it has to fight?
Did you watch it with your tired eyes
As my heavy heart became so light?
[Chorus]
But here I am…
…it doesn't matter
What they think, you learn to fly when all you do is fall
[Chorus]
But here I am, everything they said I couldn't…
…to fly when all you do is fall
[Chorus]
But here I am, everything they said I couldn't be, yeah
Here I am, standing taller than them all…

…' with you
No way in hell think of leavin' with you
But here I am
[Bridge]
I should know better, no more
No way, no how
Said I ain't gonna, I don't wanna…
…you out, no I wouldn't
Get caught drinking with you
Even speakin' with you
No way in hell think of leavin' with you
But here I am…
Could be anywhere
But here I am
[outro]
Mmm, never again not even if
Hell freezes over…
