  • I'm writing down my dreams, all I'd like to see
    Starting with the bees or else they're gonna die
    There won't be no trees or air for us to breathe
    I'll start feeling mad, but then I feel inspired
    Thinking about the days coming home with dirty feet
    From playing with my dad all day in the creek
    He somehow has a way of knowing what to say
    So when I'm feeling sad, he makes me feel inspired

    We are meant for more
    Pull the handle on the door that opens up to change
    I know that sounds so strange
    To think we are meant for more
    Pull the handle on the door that opens up to change
    I know that sounds so strange
    'Cause you've always felt so small, but know you aren't at all
    And I hope you feel inspired
    Oh, I hope you feel inspired

    How can we escape all the fear and all the hate?
    Is anyone watching us down here?
    Death is life, it's not a curse
    Reminds us of time and what it's worth
    To make the most out of it while we're here

    We are meant for more
    Pull the handle on the door that opens up to change
    I know it sounds so strange
    We are meant for more
    There's a lock upon the door, but we hold the key to change

    But how can we escape all the fear and all the hate?
    Is anyone watching us down here? Writer/s: Miley Cyrus
