Behind Me

ROSE
I know what's behind me
A family cut down to two
A career with a sense of irony
A dream that wasn't coming true
The fate of a star to shine
Does all of that define me?
I'm putting all of that behind me
I know what's behind me
A union of endings
All dressed to the nines
Addressed as ‘character’
But I will not romanticize
A life spent immobilized
You don't have to remind me
I'm putting all of that behind me
Then a chance, then a choice
Then a breath, then a voice
I see the earth tilt on its axis
The full force of the wind of change
Gets behind me
The ghost of all my yesterdays
Stands beside me
Now nothing can hide me
This mess of emotions
That's building her wings
‘Cause flying or falling
I'm finally spending my time midair
I made it, and I'm not going anywhere
Don't spend a second looking back
You will never find me
I'm putting all of that behind me
I'm putting all of that behind me
