Don’t be afraid to go crazy
Or worry about your fears unless
They drive you too close to death
And you think you’ll never see clear
Finally I can sleep with the lights out
Even with some sound and I’ve lost
Nearly everyone but I’ve gained self
Love so honestly I’m proud
Its not profound or even worse to
Be bipolar I used to see it as a question
And sometimes as a curse but if you
Let yourself believe it then its always
Friday the 13th but become a lucky
Charm and st Patrick’s day you’ll bring
A pot of gold because you will be the
Rainbow, don’t fear losing it all as
That probably is the closest to freedom
Once I thought aliens were hiding
In my room, my family was the fbi
And I soon found myself across the
Country with some guy I barely knew
Sometimes the loose screws need
To fall out for you to figure out what you
Knew and I’m glad I dont have a baby
Or someone to just stick it through
Maybe it took me a while but I’m
Happy at the job I do – I’m satisfied
But not eager to just give it up
I can feel the trills of my soul
Almost burping itself back up
Saying go create music, go create
Words, don’t be afraid to sing
Even if you’re sober now and
If you’re heard – who cares if
You can’t drink after a long week
Because it just makes you tired
And want to go to sleep
Who cares if you lost it all
Because look at yourself now
I look at myself in the mirror
Long locks, curves, smiling
And I’m proud
