I never said
I was something special
I always said I wasn't anything at all.
It is you who swore
I was everything more
but now I think you regret the fall.
So turn me into whatever
you need, make me awful
in your head;
Just so that you can forgive
yourself for wanting
to break free, instead.
You do what you need
to get the strength to leave,
and fulfill your heart's beat.
Meanwhile, I'll just be me
still pretending I don't bleed,
letting life wash over me.
no control
no control
When do I get to take a stand?
When do I get to speak up and say
you've got it all wrong, my friend?
When can I say to you
I matter more than you ever knew,
Instead of just answering with "Ok."?
It doesn't make me right
It doesn't make me wrong
It makes me human
to want to just for once, belong.
To something permanent
that I can trust and be confident
because it's unconditional.
Ah, the foundation
Boy, it was shaky
Words must be built on solid ground.
So the time will come
I'll know it for true love
And that "Ok." will be the strongest sound.
