This isn’t one of
the stories they tell you
when you’re young
and love seems
dumb
there is no prince
and
there is no princess
No knight to fight for honor
What exists is
far more peculiar
Now so much time has past
that
the memories just make me laugh
Now that all the pain has healed
I finally realize what is real
It’s a burden of belief
in love
I’ve placed upon myself
I’m not perfect
and I’m sure not magic
Sometimes I'm down right selfish
and almost always stubborn
If I seem lost
I can be found
and you’ll be the one to find me
If I seem low
and held down
you’ll be the one to free me
But don’t look back now
there will be others
whatever happens will succeed us
far past our deaths
There are days still
it seems that all I do
is survive
and I
hardly know why
I know you feel
the same too
with such lows and highs
sometimes I wonder
why I let him worry
trying to show him
the bigger picture
A family I found
When no one else
Would come around
to claim me
Yeah we’ve had our fights
We’ve had good nights then
And each a wrong
And each a right
But a person means
more than pain
or worry
The burden of proof
Is in my hands
and I’ll let you rest
In them
As long as you need
Somebody
If I seem lost
I can be found
and you’ll be the one to find me
If I seem low
and held down
you’ll be the one to free me
But don’t look back now
there will be others
whatever happens will succeed us
far past our deaths
I didn’t ask for this
Sometimes you get more
Sometimes you get less
This life is a mess
the stories they tell you
when you’re young
and love seems
dumb
there is no prince
and
there is no princess
No knight to fight for honor
What exists is
far more peculiar
