[Verse 1]
Stopped off at a red light
By Southern and Maine
Saw a man smiling and dancing and laughing
In the pouring rain
What am I missing?
I wanna feel that way
'Cause I ain't even smiling and dancing and laughing
On sunny days
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart may beat, but there's no sound
Do I sit back or turn around?
All I know
I don't wanna be here right now
[Chorus]
I wanna be free
I wanna be careless
I wanna look in the mirror
And know that I'll be okay
I wanna be loved
But don't wanna be lugged down
Don't wanna look back in three years
And know I didn't take my shot
I got my hand on the trigger
Ready or not
[Verse 2]
Our break
I'm gonna wash it off
'Cause I wore that shit on my shoulders
For seventeen months too long
Oh, and this hometown (Hey)
Safe as it may be
Mama, I'm not in a hurry
So don't you go worry 'bout me
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart may beat, but there's no sound
Do I sit back or turn around?
All I know
I don't wanna be here right now
[Chorus]
I wanna be free
I wanna be careless
I wanna look in the mirror
And know that I'll be okay
I wanna be loved
But don't wanna be lugged down
Don't wanna look back in three years
And know I didn't take my shot
I got my hand on the trigger
Ready or not
I've got my hand on the trigger
Ready or not
Come on
I wanna be free
I wanna be careless
I wanna look in the mirror
And know that I'll be okay
I wanna be loved
But don't wanna be lugged down
Don't wanna look back in three years
And know I didn't take my shot
So I got my hand on the trigger
Ready or not
I've got my hand on the trigger
Ready or not
