[Verse 1]
I had the key to my life
Held it like a best friend
Right by my side
I didn't wanna let it out to let it glow
Didn't wanna let it out to let it show
I was afraid of what they thought
So I did the things they'd do
To be something I'm not
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna keep writing fiction
I don't wanna keep playing pretend
This is the beginning of the end
[Chorus]
Death to my reputation
I made a castle made of sand
And as the waves crashed on it
I felt it slip right through my hands
They held on so tightly
To who they thought I should be
As I watched it crumble
I know that I had been set free
[Verse 2]
I've tried a thousand things
Looking back now
Did they havе any meaning?
I wanna wear my heart on my sleevе
Wanna show you all the things that I believe
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't keep writing fiction
I won't keep playing pretend
This is the beginning of the end
Of the end
[Chorus]
Death to my reputation
I made a castle made of sand
And as the waves crashed on it
I felt it slip right through my hands
They held on so tightly
To who they thought I should be
As I watched it crumble
I know that I had been set
Death to my reputation
I made a castle made of sand
And as the waves crashed on it
I felt it slip right through my hands
They held on so tightly
To who they thought I should be
As I watched it crumble
I know that I had been set free
(Death to my reputation)
I know that I had been set free
(Death to my reputation)
I know that I had been set free
(Death to my reputation)
I know that I had been set free
(Death to my reputation)
[Outro]
This is my death to my reputation
I can finally be me
This is liberation
I know that I have been set free
