Bachelor Girl - Shaping My Universe Lyrics

I used to live on coffee and nicotine
Used to think that I knew everything
Used to put things off 'til never
Acting like I'm oh so clever

Collected friends that couldn't be trusted
Searched for love that never lasted
Used to take this life for granted
Judged myself not up to standard

But I can choose to be
The me I wanna be
When I finally learn
I'm shaping my universe

But I can choose to be
The me I wanna be
When I finally learn
I'm shaping my universe

Used to think TV was the whole world
Used to need to feel like a cover girl
All the while a junk food junkie
Caught up in how people saw me

Thought I was the center of gravity
Tryin' to pin the blame on somebody
Money was the holy grail
Always fearing I would fail

But I can choose to be
The me I wanna be
When I finally learn
I'm shaping my universe

But I can choose to be
The me I wanna be
When I finally learn
I'm shaping my universe

My attitudes build the world I live in
Controlling what I take and what I'm given
What if changing, changing my life
Is as simple as changing my mind

Fear would always leave me paralyzed
Always tried to believe my own lies
Never would forgive or forget
Never thought my soul important

But I can choose to be
The me I wanna be
When I finally learn
I'm shaping my universe

But I can choose to be
The me I wanna be
When I finally learn
I'm shaping my universe
