no matter how odd
or how old
your taste in music is

there will always be someone
who knows the lyrics
to the songs you sing

and when you find her
or when he finds you

*sing along
and play that music
on
and on
and on

I found
my happy place

this time
*I'm staying

she was not the type of girl who would sing lullabies until you fall asleep

she was the type of girl who would keep you on the edge of your seat.. the reason you cannot fall asleep

why do i keep doing this
to become and unbecome
at the same time

i want to change
yet i want to be the same
i want to go
yet i want to stay
i keep telling myself to do it
but i always find reasons not to
i keep pushing myself to let go
but i find reasons to hold on


i want to be me
but i don't know who i am
i want to change the world
but i'm the one who needs saving


**here i am screaming
without letting myself be heard

you've been putting yourself last
that's why people
started doing the same

if you won't prioritize yourself,
who will?


PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER
SO PEOPLE CAN PULL YOU UP

"You have always wanted to save the world. But Darling, the world does not need your help. You have carried the weight of the world on your own when it does not need to be carried. It's okay. It is okay if you can't save the world. It's okay even if you can't save half of it. Heck, it's okay if you can only save one person...and it's okay if that person is yourself."

And now
if they ask me
if I am yours
I still say
Yes

As for you
I still hold you
not in my life
**but in my heart
