Lyrics

Turning This Around
By Jess Gordon and Joe Corcoran

[Verse 1]
I'm looking for a resting place
Where I can finally have some peace of mind.
To set down this baggage
And remember what it's like to be alive.

[Verse 2]
It's been a long time coming
But I'm a little tired of the lines.
I've been holding out for something
But I don't think it's coming in time.

[Pre-chorus]
I don't know
If I could make it any clearer
I'm letting go
Of all the cracks in the mirror
Don't you know?
That I've been holding on long enough.

[Chorus]
And now I'm done with games
I will not hold myself up to your expectations,
I'm tired of shame.
Of my heart always getting lost in translation.
I gave and I gave and I played by the rules
And I lost and I won and was always a fool.
But now I finally found my crown.
And I'm turning this around.

[Verse 3]
I've been living out the stories
That I told myself inside my mind.
Carrying the weight of all the things
I was afraid to leave behind.

[Verse 4]
But the stories that we tell ourselves
Never seem to read between the lines.
They left me holding out for something
That was never gonna come in time.
[Chorus]
And now I'm done with games
I will not hold myself up to your expectations,
I'm tired of shame.
Of my heart always getting lost in translation.
I gave and I gave and I played by the rules
And I lost and I won and was always a fool.
But now I finally found my crown.
And I'm turning this around.

I'm turning this around.

[Breakdown]
I don't know
If I could make it any clearer
I'm letting go
Of all the cracks in the mirror
Don't you know?
I've been holding on long enough.

[Chorus]
And now I'm done with games
I will not hold myself up to your expectations,
I'm tired of shame.
Of my heart always getting lost in translation.
I gave and I gave and I played by the rules
And I lost and I won and was always a fool.
But now I finally found my crown.
Oh, now I finally found my crown.
And I'm turning this around.

I'm turning this around.
