| Calm is a feeling I learned to never want more
|
| Calm is a toy I was taught to leave on the floor
|
| Calm was a feeling you said would just break my heart
|
| Calm was a feeling you said was bad for my art
|
| And every time that you told me I’m not good enough
|
| I can’t believe I could ever have felt so rough
|
| Every time that you tell me I’m not good enough I don’t believe it
|
| Every time that you told me I’m not gonna win
|
| I can’t believe I could ever have been sucked in
|
| Every time that you tell me I’m not gonna win I don’t believe it… anymore
|
| Peace is a feeling I learned was pie in the sky
|
| Peace is a feeling I learned to never ask why
|
| Hope is a toy I was taught to leave on the ground
|
| Hope is a dream I was taught to not make a sound
|
| And every time that you told me I’m not good enough
|
| I can’t believe I could ever have felt so rough
|
| Every time that you tell me I’m not good enough I don’t believe it
|
| Every time that you told me I’m not gonna win
|
| I can’t believe I could ever have been sucked in
|
| Every time that you tell me I’m not gonna win I don’t believe it… anymore
|
| Gimme something beautiful to believe in
|
| Gimme something elastic I can breathe in
|
| And every time that you told me I’m not good enough
|
| I can’t believe I could ever have felt so rough
|
| Every time that you tell me I’m not good enough I don’t believe it
|
| Every time that you told me I’m not gonna win
|
| I can’t believe I could ever have been sucked in
|
| Every time that you tell me I’m not gonna win I don’t believe it… anymore
|
| I know you never meant to hurt me, I know you only wanted to give me
|
| The tools you believed I needed to learn to fly
|
| I know you never meant to hurt me, I know you only wanted to give me
|
| The tools you believed I needed to be a butterfly |
