  • I grew up memorizing all the cracks in the wall
    Staring up at the ceiling watching particles fall
    See I prayed every day for a change to be made
    And I'd wait to be saved, oh no
    Up at night, hiding under covers found my escape
    Shut my eyes and let the bass buzz into my brain
    See I knew I was destined for bigger
    And better but never said a thing

    I assumed there was only room for
    My dreams in my dreams so I'd sleep
    And repeat 'til the moon went home
    And I didn't know where it'd take me
    But made me so crazy in love with it

    Then the universe aligned
    With what I had in mind
    Who knew there was a life
    Behind those four pink walls?

    Now I wake up to a different bedroom everyday
    Living up in the clouds thinking of how it all changed
    Used to sit and watch paint dry
    Amazed by the limelight
    I can't ever be afraid

    I assumed there was only room for
    My dreams in my dreams so I'd sleep
    And repeat 'til the moon went home
    And I didn't know where it'd take me
    But made me so crazy in love with it

    Then the universe aligned
    Oh, with what I had in mind
    Who knew there was a life
    Behind those four pink walls?

    Oh, the universe aligned
    With what I wanted all this time
    I knew there was a life
    Behind those four pink walls

    All of the days that I wasted gazing outside the window
    Impatient frustrations let out into my pillow
    Lied awake at night while my head wandered
    And I wondered why
    Things weren't different
    Everything shifted overnight
    Went from when boredom strikes to Ms. Star on the Rise
    It was all in an instant man
    But those four pink walls, now I kinda miss them man

    Then the universe aligned
    With what I wanted all this time
    I knew there was a life
    Behind those four pink walls
