Lyrics

I was a little bit too shy,
A little bit too short,
A little bit too late,
And a little bit uglier
Just a little bit too tired,
A little bit too scared,
A little bit too weird,
And a little bit lonelier

But the louder my voice,
The louder my voice,
The louder my voice
Carries through
The closer I come,
The closer I come,
The closer I come,
To breaking through

You’re just a little bit too young,
A little bit too dumb,
A little bit too odd
And a little bit clumsier
You’re a little bit too fat,
A little bit too plain,
A little bit too dull,
And a little bit funnier

But the louder your voice,
The louder your voice,
The louder your voice
Carries through
The closer you’ll come,
The closer you’ll come,
The closer you’ll come,
To breaking through

And you try so hard
And it makes you ache
And you find your voice
And you, and you
Get louder

You’re just a little bit too young,
A little bit too dumb,
A little bit too odd
And a little bit clumsier
You’re a little bit too fat,
A little bit too plain,
A little bit too dull,
And a little bit funnier

But the louder your voice,
The louder your voice,
The louder your voice
Carries through
The closer you’ll come,
The closer you’ll come,
The closer you’ll come,
To breaking through

And you try so hard
And it makes you ache
And you find your voice
And you, and you
Get louder
