“I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell; I know right now you can't tell; But stay a while and maybe then you'll see; A different side of me”

“We're all looking for something, something to be.”

“If I fall along the way, pick me up and dust me off; If I get too tired to make it, be my breath so I can walk; If I need some other love then, give me more than I can stand; When my smile gets old and faded, just wait around I'll smile again; It shouldn't be so complicated, just hold me and then, just hold me again”

“Wrong step, you got off track, you need someone to help us back, now.”

“Everyone's trusting in their hearts, like their heart don't lie”

“I'm the flame I can't get burnt”
