Standing on the sideline, see the life I live passing me by
I look inside but can't go in
Standing on the side while staring at myself
Again I wonder. Who am I?

Let me go! flee; far away from the life I once knew
Let me fall, deep down!
The truth will be down there to pick me back up
Freeze time... for now

Standing on the sideline, as an alien
It's weird to feel; who's that girl?
Standing here, so broken
I'm too tired to grasp: that was me
I was so self-assured!

Just let me go! drift far away from the life I once knew
Let me fall, deep down!
The truth will be down there to pick me back up
My own fear has brought me here
Stand there alone on the sideline of life while it moved on

Me, that person, I look so astray
Re-inventing myself? I mimic in my search for me
Like a doll on string I move. like a marionette of a lost soul
I am in there somewhere but for now I stay right here

I'm on the sideline!

Just let me go! drift far away from the life I once knew
Let me fall, deep down!
The truth will be down there to pick me back up
My own fear has kept me there
Standing alone on the sideline of life while it moved on
This made me so humble! I'll stay a little while longer
