Here I sit halfway to somewhere
thinking 'bout what's in front of me and what I left behind
on my own, supposed to be so easy
is this what I've been after
or have I lost my mind
maybe this is my big chance coming to take me away
[Chorus] If I should stumble on my moment in time, how will I know
if the story's written on my face, does it show
Am I strong enough to walk on water
Smart enough to come in out of rain
or am I fool going where the wind blows
Asus2 C#m
Here I am, walking naked through the world
Asus2 E
taking up space, society's child
Bsus4
make room for me, make room for me, make room for me
