I know what it is to hurt
I know what it is to love
both of those go together
like an olive branch and
a dove.

I know what its like to hate and
I know how it feels to cry
I know what it is to speak the truth
I  know what happens when you lie

I know how it feels to act a fool and
I know how good it feels to seem wise
I know how it feels to fail
no matter how hard you try

But victory isn't the only thing that satisfies...

There's losers and winners
old and young
dumb and smart
hate and heart
light and dark

Since when is variety a bad thing?
to me, it's sweet freedom
to me, it's real life

Every one is different

and to me that's alright.
