Modesty

This whole time
I had it all under control
And I want to say thank you
To myself this time
You think that I care
About anything that you might have to say
For years and years it’s always been the
Wrong way round, so I’ve found
Always been out of place
But I’m moving with the times now
I stand so tall
Earned my place, broke the walls
There’s no room for modesty, modesty
Who knows
Who knows when life is lost on you
I’m just a girl, they say
In a preacher’s old time world, they say
On high horses and shallow whims
And if you’ve learnt it then unlearn it
Just don’t give us all that bullshit
You’ll come to find our patience is wearing thin
My patience is wearing thin
I stand so tall
Earned my place, broke the walls
There’s no room for modesty, modesty
Who knows
Who knows when life is lost on you
I stand so tall
Earned my place, broke the walls
There’s no room for modesty, modesty
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows when life is lost on you
