lyrics

Always thought I wasn't good enough
Cause nothings good enough for you
Tried to tell you
What I was feeling
But you didn't want me to

There’s a door that I’ve been holding open
Even when my friends told me to let it go
There’s I hope that I’ve been holding onto
In the face of everything you've shown

Yesterday I let it go
When you know you know

I've always had these strong emotions
Like a compass inside my head
It'll tell me
Where I’m going
If I listen to what it says

I've tried all kinds of self-destruction
Just to deaden that compasses glow
There’s a lot that it’s been trying to tell me
That I wasn't ready to know
Yesterday I let it show
When you know you know

I've tried all kinds of self-destruction
Just to deaden that compasses glow
There’s a lot that it’s been trying to tell me
That I wasn't ready to know
Yesterday I let it show
When you know you know

I feel happy
When I’m going on the road
Somewhere new
All alone my mind can wander
I can do what I want to do

My whole life is like an acid trip with all the feelings and the colors in my mind
Many lives I’ve had to say goodbye to, and I think about them all from time to time
They were hard to leave behind
But it was time to go
When you know you know
My whole life is like an acid trip with all the feelings and the colors in my head
Many times, I’ve tried to think of others, but I think about you instead
You were hard to leave behind
It was time to go (time to go)

When you know you know (when you know you know)
When you know you know
