(no longer a nanny)Kate

i'm all right.

(thanks *again to pip because it's because of him that i love this band. boy oh boy, pip is getting mad props over here. he owes me a trip to NY so i can thank him in person)

i think i've posted this before...
but despite the fact that i have an enormous test in an hour and am feeling totally overwhelmed with life, i've been listening to it in the car, repeatedly, instead of dr. wager. (who i SHOULD have been listening to...)

catch your breath
hit the wall
scream out loud
as you start to crawl
back in your cage
the only place
where they will
leave you alone
cause the weak will seek the weaker till they've broken them
could you get it back again
would it be the same
fulfillment to their lack of strength at your expense
left you with no defense
they tore it down

and I have felt the same
as you I've felt the same
as you I've felt the same

locked inside
the only place
where you feel sheltered
where you feel safe
you lost yourself
in your search to find
something else to hide behind
cause the fearful always preyed upon your confidence
didn't they see the consequence
they pushed you around
the arrogant build kingdoms made of the different ones
breaking them till they've become
just another crown

and I have felt the same
as you I've felt the same
as you I've felt the same
as you I've felt the same

refuse to feel
anything at all
refuse to slip
refuse to fall
can't be weak
can't stand still
watch your back
cause no one will

you don't know why they had to go this far
traded your worth for these scars
for your only company
and don't believe the lies that they have told to you
not one word was true
you're alright
you're alright
you're alright

and I have felt the same
as you I've felt the same
as you I've felt the same
as you I've felt the same

i just keep hearing him say, 'you're all right, you're all right, you're all right'
pip's got my back. woo for me.
