Footing

I speak the tongue the of fools, I know,

Walking around just humming.

I look the part of uncool, i know,

It’s something still becoming.

I dance within the flames, you see,

I’m warm but stay unburned,

I keep my mind on a short leash,

If it got lost, I know it wouldn’t return.

 

Sometimes it’s not so bad, just being yourself,

Sometimes it’s not so bad, sometimes it’s not so bad.

Sometimes it’s not so hard, just to be yourself,

Sometimes it’s not so hard, sometimes it’s not so hard.

 

I need to let some things go,

My ears are hot but cooled by rain,

You tried to do this to me, I know,

You tried to make me feel this pain,

I’ll spite you, come back stronger,

Once I find my footing.

I make each step much longer,

And hold close to me what I’m learning.

 

Sometimes it’s not so bad, just being yourself,

Sometimes it’s not so bad, sometimes it’s not so bad.

Sometimes it’s not so hard, just to be yourself,

Sometimes it’s not so hard, sometimes it’s not so hard.

 

Your eyes are the only ones that can judge you, you see,

Cause no one really sees you like you do,

It shouldn’t matter what they think they mean,

It doesn’t matter, oh, can’t rain forever.

The ground’s unstable but we walk to get to where we’re going.

The ground’s unstable but we walk to get to where we’re going.

The ground’s unstable but we walk to get to where we’re going.

It can’t rain forever.

 

Sometimes it’s not so bad, just being yourself,

Sometimes it’s not so bad, sometimes it’s not so bad.

Sometimes it’s not so hard, just to be yourself,

Sometimes it’s not so hard, sometimes it’s not so hard.
