Ive got a stage and a mic
Which I use to say things you wont like
But I spent years thinking I was alone Thinking I was alone
Now I know, now I know, that Im not, that Im not
And Im sharing that comfort with those
Who think that hope is lost
Oh and Im so proud of where I am
Im learning where the stand or to tread lightly
So hold back
Steadfast youve gotta breathe
And be content, just count to ten
Like all the experts say and hear
The drugs dont seem to work
And theyve got a padded room for you
To get what you just deserve.
If I could chose my own name
Id chose something thats bold and fits
Like anger, aggression, or cunningly brash
By the skin of my teeth but with timing and class
Oh woe is me Oh woe is me
Oh woe were us Oh woe were us
But not anymore we stand up for ourselves
Were like captains at war, well get followed to hell
Oh and Im so proud of where I am
Im learning where the stand or to tread lightly
So hold back
steadfast you gotta breathe
And be content, just count to ten
Like all the experts say and hear
The drugs dont seem to work
And theyve got a padded room for you
To get what you just deserve.
I and I, were taking control of our lives
I and I, were taking control of our lives
I and I, were taking control of our lives
Everythings alright
I and I, were taking control of our lives
I and I, were taking control of our lives
I and I, were taking control of our lives
Everythings alright
So So hold back
Steadfast youve gotta breathe
And be content, just count to ten
Like all the experts say and hear
The drugs dont seem to work
And theyve got a padded room for you
To get what you just deserve.
