Keep running The body is burning Within your gentle bones That you keep hidden from the world There are millions So keep smiling The world is watching In those eyes you see reflections Of a boy who's head is swelling From delusions Take your time As you took mine You're not the only one Who’s here to save us You may be strong But your strength is useless Take a breathe What you hold is precious Just like the rest, you're just as helpless I'll keep strumming The tune I'm humming It's the only thing that lifts my spirit Above the beer and cigarettes I keep around me Sing loudly And keep laughing And I'll crack wise as a disguise To hide the weight my spirit puts upon my body I'll take my time To write this line It’s important to remember all my friends Who see me though kaleidoscopic lenses They are the artist, I am their canvas Just like the rest I'm just as helpless Take your time And I'll take mine We're not the only ones Who are here to save us We may be strong But our strength is useless Take a breath What we hold is precious Just like the rest, we're just as helpless
