Marisol
Emily Osment Lyrics

She held her face while she cried
She covered her face with her hands while crying and feeling lost.

And she told herself, girl you'll be just fine
She tried to reassure herself that everything will eventually be alright.

She doesn't know just where she belongs
She has no idea where she fits in or belongs in life at the moment.

But for now she's got to run
But for now, she decides to run away from her problems and try to find her place in life.

She kept her dreams inside
She kept her aspirations hidden for a long time.

For so long, for so long
She's been holding onto her dreams for a long time.

There's nowhere left to hide
She can no longer hide from her innermost desires.

She's held on for so long and
She's been holding onto her desires for a long time, but it's time to stop.

And she picks up all the scattered pieces of her life
She begins to pick up the broken pieces of her life after experiencing a crisis.

She lifts up Marisol, Marisol, Marisol take flight
She encourages herself to soar high and break free from her past.

She finds that all she needs is in her heart
She realizes that all she needs to succeed is deep within her own soul.

And all the world is hers tonight
She feels like she owns the whole world now and nothing can stop her from achieving her dreams.

Marisol, it'll all be alright
She reassures herself that everything will be okay.

With nothing but her pocket change
With no substantial amount of money but only a few coins in her pocket.

She makes her move, she heads to the train
She decides to take a bold step by boarding a train and leaving behind everything that holds her back.

She's staring at her shoes and
Absorbed in her own thoughts, she looks down and keeps staring blankly at her shoes.

Fighting off negative thoughts in her brain
She struggles to combat the negative thoughts in her mind.

Counting to ten inside she discovers another
She tries to calm herself down by counting to ten and discovers a new way to approach things.

Way to put it out of her mind and recover, recover
She finds a method to overcome her worries and move forward.

Marisol got away, got away
Marisol managed to escape and break free from her troubles.

Marisol got it her way, her way
Marisol persevered and achieved her goals on her own terms.

And she's searching through
She seeks to find something that could help guide her path.

The faces of the crowded street
Amidst a crowded street, she tries to find herself in the many faces and souls she comes across.

She's doesn't know a single soul
She doesn't know anyone personally in the area.

But she feels so free
Despite not knowing anyone, Marisol feels liberated and alive.

And her spirit and her courage are all she needs
She recognizes that the strength and determination of her spirit is all she needs to move forward.

And she flies, and she flies, oh oh oh and
She sets out to take on the world, soaring higher and higher, full of optimism.
