Lately I've been feeling the same 
I've been losing hope, resisting the pain 
It's cold outside, I wish it were clearer 
Sometimes it's just easier to turn around 
And look in the mirror 

Sometimes when I go to sleep 
My life spins out in front of me 
Like a hurricane, a bottle of wine 
Sometimes it's easier to let something else 
Control your life 

This is an anthem for the girl that got away 
This is an anthem for the world of yesterday 
This is an anthem for the rebel of my youth 
This is an anthem for the risk of loving you
