i have thrived on uncertainty
taught myself to fear the known
so whenever i am confident
i am often at my lowest
and when i'm wallowing
i'm closest to the sky

it is not the life
i recommend you live
hold tight to your beliefs, little dove
because once they are lost,
you'll find yourself undone

i was once seven years-old
i had never felt so tall
and now that i am older
i feel closet to the fall
because what i had found
someday i must have lost
and now that it is gone
it is like

it was never here at all
