Length: 4:42
Written By: Lily Abbot
Produced By: Phil N
Genre: Rock
Description: This could be classified as the 'ballad' of Lily's E.P, Demand and Supply. Written by Lily herself just by sitting at her piano, the song tells of her being somewhat doubtful of how big most people have made her out to be. The song begins with a simple piano being played for the first 18 seconds then Lily softly sings the first verse, slowly. As the song goes into the pre-chorus, the tempo changes a little. The piano playing gets faster and violins are heard as her voice gets louder and she sings with emotion in her voice. After she sings the chorus, the full band kicks in with an electric guitar, drums, and bass guitar with her piano playing. She sings the second verse the same as the first but with the full band this time. As it goes into the bridge, the band plays more intense and Lily is vocalizing then she belts out the bridge, holding notes and singing in an up and down kind of tone. She then sings the chorus again. You can hear her voice also in the background vocalizing along as she sings the chorus. When she sings the last line of the song, it goes back to her piano playing and her soft voice.
Quote:”This is probably the most emotional song on here. I was playing it on the piano and Phil, my producer, he was all like 'You should add some guitars and stuff to make it sound amazing' and I thought that it wouldn't sound as good but he's a genius like always. It's just pure, raw emotion in this song. It's about me and it's like a message to my fans and for those who just put so much faith and trust into people and put them on a pedestal. I like to think that I'm not as huge or as big as people make me out to be. It's like I make mistakes and I screw up a lot and it hurts worse than when someone like a regular person messes up that it hurts even more for me because I feel like I have the weight of the world on my shoulders and I'm something of a influence or hero to some and I have to set an example. I mean yeah I think I'm a true artist but sometimes I wonder if this is one of those phases where it's a lucky streak or actual talent. It's a great song, might be my favorite, and plus I get to show off my awesome piano skill. I think I want this to be my next single.”
[Verse 1]
I've been so broken can't believe in
Anyo-o-o-o-one, Anymore
And I look way back, Still dreaming
It could change, Must change
[Pre-Chorus]
Never knew how far I've come
Never realized
Promise not to let you down, But look me in my eyes
[Chorus]
All I want is to be free
Forever trapped inside my own
Cruel mind
I might seem a dream to you
But I promise I'm not as big
[Verse 2]
You love me, you're crying, just trust me, I hear you
Don't waste your tears
And I still keep looking at my life
It still has no-o-o-o-o-t changed
[Chorus]
All I want is to be free
Forever trapped inside my own
Cruel mind
It might seem a dream to you
But I promise I'm not as big
[Bridge]
I cannot hide, To big to try to hide
Waiting for my own hell to come
Lay my head down low
Knowing my mistakes
I don't want to live anymore
[Chorus]
Because I just want to be free
Forever trapped inside my own
Cruel mind
It might seem a dream to you
But I promise I'm not as big
I swear I'm not as big

Amy: I love it! I don't think I could ever find a better combination than your voice and a piano. An amazing song, the type that I wanna be able to write. This is great, but then again everything you do is great :) |

Lily: Thanks Amy :) I found it peaceful to just write a song while playing piano. I don't think I could survive without a piano in my life. |

erich: good tune. there is nothing worse than when someone meets you and is like "....oh". thats why i try to ensure people know i am a flawed human being.
karoliena: thats right.if your fans dont see you so drunk even shane macgowan would think twice about being in seen in such a state,how will they know you are the real deal? |
