With or without you

You know, I would steal the stars to make you happy
Tried to be the perfect thing I'm not
Tried to sing within the bars of this prison
You'd have me clip my wing, I guess you forgot

You told me
"Paint with black and white, who needs color?"
You told me
"Fear the unknown like you do"
You told me
"Try to be that thing how you wished
I was that thing I'm not"

But With or Without You
Know I'm gonna make it on my own
'Cause I never wanted
Much from this life... Just to belong

With or Without You
I've got a heart, and it's my own
I never needed
Just wanted somewhere to belong

Won't make the same mistakes you did,
I am stronger
Could've walked through fire,
Could've danced through the cold
Wanted to be the person that you...
The person that you want

But With or Without You
Know I'm gonna make it on my own
'Cause I never wanted
Much from this life... Just to belong

With or Without You
I've got a heart, and it's my own
I never needed
Just wanted somewhere to belong

I'm breaking, I'm breaking
Tell me why you can never seem to hear me!
I'm breaking, I'm breaking!
Blue skies are calling!

With or Without You (I'm gonna make it)
Know I'm gonna make it on my own
'Cause I never wanted (Ohh... I never wanted)
Much from this life... Just to belong

With or Without You (With or Without You)
I've got a heart, and it's my own
I never needed
Just wanted somewhere to belong

With or Without You... Yeah
With or Without You
With or Without You
Just wanted somewhere to belong...
