Anymore lyrics

When she was younger

Stood staring at the door

Waiting for the day

That she knew would surely come

Tied bows in her hair

Dressed as she thought you'd like

But as time ticked away

Promises fade one by one

And now she's all grown

Made it through on her own

Now strong enough to see

That you've been where you wanna be

No longer dying inside

I will not let you define

Everything I am by one thing that I don't have

'Cause I'm more than that

I will not be made to hide

These tears won't fall for you this time

I will not be ashamed

Of my name anymore

Sometimes she wonders

Imagines what you're like

The emptiness inside

That made you miss her life

The ocean's widen

With all your silence

Leaves the daydreams behind

Childish fantasies unwind

And now she knows

You're not coming home

Take the bows from her hair

She's been waiting twenty years

No longer dying inside

I will not let you define

Everything I am by one thing that I don't have

'Cause I'm more than that

I will not be made to hide

These tears won't fall for you this time

I will not be ashamed

Of my name anymore

No longer dying inside

I will not let you define

Everything I am by one thing that I don't have

'Cause I'm more than that

I will not be made to hide

These tears won't fall for you this time

I will not be ashamed

Of my name anymore

I will not, I will not

I will not, anymore

Anymore, anymore

I will not, anymore
