The First Time - Avery

If I just lie here

Without trying to be

Anyone or anything

Would it be enough

Would it set me free

If I’m just here

If I’m just me

Could I love me

Despite the mess

Could I find hope

When nothing’s left

Could all these dreams

Inside my head

Become the life

I finally live

Ooh, I’m terrified, I’m terrified

But I

Ooh, I’m gonna try, I’m gonna try

For the first time

What if I get up

When I’m feeling weak

What if I don’t run

From who I’m supposed to be

What if I took these thoughts

And said em all out loud

And when the whole world doubts

What If I believe

Could I love me

Despite the mess

Could I find hope

When nothing’s left

Could all these dreams

Inside my head

Become the life

I finally live

Ooh, I’m terrified, I’m terrified

But I

Ooh, I’m gonna try, I’m gonna try

For the first time

Could I love me

Despite the mess

Could I find hope

When nothing’s left

Could all these dreams

Inside my head

Become the life

I finally live

Ooh, I’m terrified, I’m terrified

But I

Ooh, I’m gonna try, I’m gonna try

For the first time
