I don't wanna be the girl who laughs the loudest
Or the girl who never wants to be alone
I don't wanna be there calling at four o'clock in the morning
'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home
Ah, the sun is blinding
I stayed up again
Oh, I am finding
That that's not the way I want my story to end
I'm safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain
Inside
You're my protection
But how do I feel this good sober?
I don't wanna be the girl that has to fill the silence
The quiet scares me 'cause it screams the truth
Please don't tell me that we had that conversation (I know we had)
Cause I won't remember, save your breath, 'cause what's the use?
Ah, the night is calling
And it whispers to me softly come and play
But I, I am falling
And If I let myself go I'm the only one to blame
I'm safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over? (Oh, woah)
No pain
Inside
You're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober?
Coming down, coming down, coming down
Spinning 'round, spinning 'round, spinning 'round
I'm looking for myself, sober
Coming down, coming down, coming down
Spinning 'round, spinning 'round, spinning 'round
Looking for myself, sober
When it's good, then it's good, it's so good 'till it goes bad
'Till you're trying to find the you that you once had
I have heard myself cry, never again
Broken down in agony just tryin' to find a friend
Oh
Oh
I'm safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me (nothing can touch me)
But why do I feel this party's over? (Why do I feel this party's over?)
No pain (no)
Inside (ah)
You're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober? (How do I feel this good sober?)
I'm safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over? (Oh, woah)
No pain
Inside
You're like perfection
But how do I feel this good sober? (How do I feel this good sober?)
Or the girl who never wants to be alone
I don't wanna be there calling at four o'clock in the morning
'Cause I'm the only one you know in the world that won't be home
Ah, the sun is blinding
I stayed up again
Oh, I am finding
That that's not the way I want my story to end
I'm safe
Up high
Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain

You're my protection
But how do I feel this good sober?

I'm only fourteen and already I feel myself beginning to relate to this song. I got really drunk last night and I don't want to become that kind of girl, I don't know what to do.
If you dont want to become that kind of girl, then dont. Its all in your own hands to become one or not. Say no to alcohol if you dont want to get drunk. You're the only one who can control it.<br /> <br /> Besides that, great song! And it definitely is 'quiet' instead of 'crying'
its definitely crying besides, that makes more sense. to cry, you have to be vulnerable, and that kind of sincerity is terrifying. sorry girl, i didn't mean to take up your reply space. I know what you mean. I'm fifteen and its scary some of the shit some of my friends and other kids my age and younger have gotten mixed up in. You just have to know that no one controls you, not alcohol, drugs, your friends, or even your loved ones. You can decide where you want to go. Its not easy, but it just depends on how hard you want it.
Okay, all I'm going to say, right here, right now, is listen to yourself, "I don't want to become that kind of girl." Do you hear that? Or in this case, read? You don't want to be that person. Get whatever you need to not be that person. YOU and ONLY you know what's right and wrong to YOU. Nobody else. It's your world, and it's in your hands, and you make your decisions, and you decide what path is the best one to take. Nobody can tell you what to do. Don't give into something like peer pressure, if you know it's wrong, don't do it. "Somtimes the right thing isn't always the popular way, but sometimes the popular way, isn't even the right way."
