[Verse 1]
Tell yourself that you
Need to bleed, but you
Don't deserve this
You don't deserve this
Tell yourself what you
Must believe but you don't
[Interlude]
Not a single word
Not a single word
[Verse 2]
What wish was left behind
When they shoved you aside?
What was sacred held to flame
Till the smoke and embers came
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Then you silenced all your reverie
To bury prophecy
It's time to raise the dead
It's time to lift your head and begin
To listen to yourself, ooh
[Chorus]
Don't stand in your own way
Don't stand in your own way
I won't stand in your way
[Verse 3]
Tomorrow will not wait
You're out of time to tell yourself
What you need to hear
That you
Are not less
You don't deserve less
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now be haunted by those promises
You once made to yourself
Now it's time to make the bed
Time to raise your head and begin
To listen to yourself
[Chorus]
Don't stand in your own way
Don't stand in your own way
I won't stand in your way
[Chorus]
Don't stand in your own way
Don't stand in your own way
I won't stand in your way
[Outro]
Tomorrow will not wait
