Baby, you always knew how to stand up straight.

Honey, I gave to you and you gave it all away.

Iʼll just fill my lungs
C

Sister, could you be a crutch tonight.

Giver, my words are clay but in you they mean so much.

All I see are lights ahead,

is this fear I hold, I can see your smile, your teenage smile.

I can stand alone, I stand alone.
