If you're free to leave, it's easy to stay
But it's not always simple to do
Show off your weaknesses, misunderstand
& be the worst version of you
A leaf from a tree in the autumn will fall
Like a feather, floats to the floor
Be a new one next year, we grow strong over here
So hold on, you'll be back for more
It's never the end of the world
It just stops for a minute while you unfurl
It goes on without you, whatever you do
So, stand up for something, all the way through
Take a leaf from my story
Don't disappear 'til its time
I used to be sad, and then I forgot
I remember who's on my side
They say that you're larger than life
So, you live like maybe it's true
But don't take it from me, wait & you'll see
Life is much larger than you
It's never the end of the world
It just stops for a minute while you unfurl
It goes on without you, whatever you do
So, stand up for something, all the way through
