no longer lend your strength to that
which you wish to be free from.
Fill your life with love and bravery,
and you shall live a life uncommon.

If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,
and not to worry cause worry is wasteful
and useless in times like these.

I won't be idle with despair,
I will gather myself around my faith.

We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,
because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.

which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.

Gather yourself by the sea shore and I will love you there.
Assemble yourself with wild things,

For I long for a man with nests of wild things in his hair.
A man who will Kiss the Flame.

and move yourself at the same

I need to figure out how to be happy...
and I'm willing.

I was thinking that I might fly today.
Just to disprove all the things you say...
please be careful with me, I'm sensitive,
and I'd like to stay that way.

In case you failed to notice,
in case you failed to see,
this is my heart,
bleeding before you,
this is me down on my knees.

I'm having a bad day. I am not size six.
My legs are not skinny as sticks,

I'm afraid that I can't satisfy myself

I feel weak, so you're gonna take the fall.
You're so shallow.

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud. It does not dishonor others,
It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered,

but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
