One of the biggest lies
I have ever told
Is that I don’t care
About you anymore

I said I’d never catch feelings...
The situation would be far too complicated.
It was 5 a.m. and we were still laughing.
You made me feel free and happy,
For the first time in a long time.
I just couldn’t help myself.

There are thousands of ways
I said I love you
And you never heard me say
A single one

There are thousands of ways
I could say I miss you
And you'll never hear me say
A single one

I told you I was a mess
You begged me to let you inside
So buckle up baby
And enjoy the ride

Though the saying goes
with age comes wisdom
As the years pass
I feel as lost as ever

Stumbling through life
Following my heart
Trying to do what’s right
Still fearing the unknown

As for my family
We like our drinks strong
Our whiskey neat
Our tequila straight
And our women silent

You lit a fire in my soul
Then you put me out
Nothing and no one
Will be able to rekindle that flame

They take and take with no thought of giving
Leave you in the shadows, barely living

Drain your soul; leave you with scars
Then wonder why you don't reach for the stars

They continue to judge without any care
Then label you broken beyond repair

They ignore your struggles and trivialize your pain
Then wonder why you can't break the chains

Don't let their darkness consume your light
Don't let their words dim your inner sight

You are strong, you are resilient
Your spirit is unbreakable and brilliant

So let them talk, let them judge
They cannot fathom the strength you've trudged

And when they ask why you are so dark
Show them your light and leave your mark
