She dreams of where she's never been Her story starts where it should end And she keeps a bible close And folds the pages down she needs the most Hmm-hmm hmm-hmm hmm-mm The faded walls are closing in So in her head she leaves again And they've painted ceilings blue and green And brilliant colors she's never seen And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon You'll never be a winner if you're not in the game Nothing ever happens if you always play it safe Make a little space and get out of your own way A ticket out sits on her shelf But gathers dust upon itself 'Cause chasing chance is for the brave Maybe soon she'll feel that way But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon Nothing ever happens if you don't get hurt Nothing ever happens if you never get dirty Make a little space and go on, get out Go on, get out Leave what you don't need You're free and the pieces will fall into place You and you only Who can make a little space and and get out of your own way Eh eh eh, eh eh eh, eh eh eh, eh eh eh She sees the sunlight through the cracks It's only her who holds her back and And so she takes her deepest breath Shuts the door and walks down the steps And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon Nothing ever happens if you're not in the game And nothing ever happens if you always play it safe Make a little space and get out of your own Oh, get out of your own way Get out of your own Oh, get out of your own way Get out of your own way Oh oh oh oh ohh
