lyrics

I don't wanna fight but here's a fight song.
Stop telling me I don't belong.
You're monsters. They're monsters.
Count the days in my head til I get a chance to cut through the thicket
and reach a clearing where I can fall into the right welcoming arms.

Every single one of us is different.
Every single one of us is the same.
I don't know if they make prayers big enough for what I need to pick myself back up and brave the day.

Can't live in fear of always fucking things up.
I wish I had the right words instead of far too little or WAY too many.
Cuz I feel like debris after the bomb dropped. My God, it gets so heavy.
And I've been drawn towards the gallows more times than I care to admit.

Every single one of us is different.
Every single one of us is the same.
I don't know if they make prayers big enough for what I need to pick myself back up and brave the day.

It's not some confidence game.
I hate playing games at all.
I'd never set you up just to mess with you in anticipation of a fall.

Of a fall.

And I'm fighting my way back after the darkness found a heart.
And inside I'm still alive trying to glue myself together a piece at a time into a work of art.
