A young girl on a bar stool
You said you want to be me
To be someone who doesn't have to fear
But you don't know everything
I haven't always been like this
Walking my own path with my head held up
Too many times I was left alone
And I let the road take me
Some don't regret anything
I do
Everything didn't go like it does in fairy tales
And every time I stumbled, yeah it hurt
Like you now I too sometimes cried
That's how you fall, yeah it hurts
I made your sorrow into a ladder, a blue ladder, and I climb it up to get away
I climb it up to get away
A little bird on a bar stool
You're tired and you miss mother
Would the world be kind to you
When you walk in it
Some don't regret anything
I do
Everything didn't go like it does in fairy tales
And every time I stumbled, yeah it hurt
Like you now I too sometimes cried
That's how you fall, yeah it hurts
I made your sorrow into a ladder, a blue ladder, and I climb it up to get away
I climb it up to get away
I climb it up to get away
When I see a sundown
You still see a beautiful summer day
I wish I could be there for a moment and grab your hand
And every time I stumbled, yeah it hurt
Like you now I too sometimes cried
That's how you fall, yeah it hurts
I made your sorrow into a ladder, a blue ladder, and I climb it up to get away
I climb it up to get away
I climb it up to get away
I climb it up to get away
