lyrics

How dare there not be silence
How dare this not be the only news for the whole week
How dare there not be people lining the streets
What might it take to take this seriously!?

Why can’t we see how we all write the lines of each other’s eulogies?
Keep your head up and you might just make it after all.

Today you won’t wear makeup
You’ll tell your workmates you got caught in the rain
You won’t hear when your boss is calling your name
And you know it behooves you not to complain
But when you go home a door closes, windows open and the day’s so warm!!
Turn the radio on… and you might just make it after all.

When I see the face of who I would become
If six years ago I’d take a different turn
And I think of all the things I would have done
and of all the things I now will never learn

To feel heart-ache for a non-existent self
For the people that I shed and kissed goodbye
For the feelings I put up upon the shelf
And a life I left behind and god knows why and I know why.

With the strength it takes to finally let go
Of beliefs I held since I was just a child
Now it’s safe to be all open to the world!!
You can love with all your heart and be alright!
You can dream of all the things that you might be
You can work towards your goals and change your life
And it’s not to show those bastards they were wrong:
It’s to live and love and grow and god knows why and I know why.
