Invincible

about

Written Sept. 2010. Not many people have heard this one. I was in a bad place once, but I was fortunate enough to find my own voice of reason. Not every person gets a voice saying that things will be okay. It will be okay. This one's for me, it's for you, it's for anyone who's been lost, or has come close to being lost. You can do it.

Oh, and sorry Third Eye Blind if I ripped you off. I like you lots.

lyrics

If I step back from this ledge, my friend
Would you be there for me in the end?
Said you'd never give up on me, but that's a lie.
Well, I know no one's invincible
But I sure gave it my best try.
Would it be so hard just to say goodbye?

If I had to go, this is where I'd want to go.
Cuz no one knows me here. So no one would shed a tear.

Though things would be better by tomorrow
But tomorrow turned into a year.
Hide it with a smile, but I've been living with doubt and fear.
But you ignore me when I'm falling down
Don't pick me up when I've long since hit the ground.
And I'm calling to you but you don't even hear.

So if I have to go, this is where I want to go.
No one knows me here. So no one would shed a tear.

Life may cut, may scar, and it might sting.
But if you make it through this, you can make it through anything.

So if you want to go, you should know you're loved more than you'll ever know.
When it feels like you're nothing here, take a step back from that ledge and you'll see, I'm here.
And you're invincible, my dear.
