Life is hard you're not entitled to shit
You're gonna grow old best be dealing with it
And its easy to hurt harder to love
You won't understand until you've failed the above
It's ok to cry but nobody cares
Everyone's running you're just splitting hairs
Yea you're important I know, I see it to
Every photo of you is another photo of you
But your value is neither a flag or a key
Or something someone holds above your head on your knees
You don't have to try so hard to please
So go take a nap and come back to me
Yea, and thats a lot I know but hold on
Don't fear, carry on
Though it feels you're far from home
You didn't come here alone
Yes I get it you got your thing you stand on
And thats important to you as the dew is to dawn
And you're punching each ear to prove that their wrong
And your words are the pearls from your thoughts that are strong
But its not so much that your singing this song
Or even that your ideas are half way wrong
You're just a dick
Truth exists you can be certain of it
Sometimes its not popular or a feeling that you get
But its buried in the clay and its brutal and its quick
And every heart that has been has stemmed off of it
Its ok to wonder but you best be asking why
But don't bend it or hide it it will punch you in the eye promise you
Don't fear whats at hand
Just cradle and understand
Though it feels you're far from home
You didn't come here alone
Things have changed it's true even I'm so scared
Some seem so angry, so mercy impaired
When the doors flung open the small reached for the ground
Now the shepherds are the wolves who treat the faithful like clowns
But before you grab a stone know behind every eye
Is a story that if you knew it would break you to cry
Somethings you are meant for but some meant for you
Be vigilant to the difference and rehearse what to do
And grasp at the heals but know your own shoes
And give where you're needed, please don't give where you choose
And some days are a whistle and some days the blues
Some days you need power but you kicked out fuse
Yea, thats a lot, I know, but hold on
Don't fear, carry on.
Though it feels you're far from home
You didn't come here alone
It can be easy to whisper, easy to scream
To hold out a picture of the way it should seem
To build yourself high to cover the dirt
And then dress each pain in the sexiest skirt
But there's one thing Ive learned
Vulnerability kills those masking the naked and strengthens the will
Oh thats a lot, I know, but hold on
Don't fear, carry on
Though it feels you're far from home
You didn't come here alone
