I remember what it felt like
When I thought that I had died
Before the curtain opened up
And swept away my alibis
I’ve a suspicious mind
Got treason on the brain
Give it patience, give it time
All enemies have names
If it’s worth it, it won’t be pretty
If it’s broken, maybe we can fix it
And no one’s ever called me pretty anyway
It takes a lot of steps, it takes a ton of faith
It takes a whole lot of something no one tells you how to make
All the things I had to drop
So I could pick this up
The weight could crush my suspect heart
If I had had enough
But nothing’s really magic
Little secrets for every trick
I know the script it calls for tragic
But don’t give up on this
If it’s worth it, it won’t be pretty
If it’s broken, maybe we can fix it
And no one’s ever called me pretty anyway
It takes a lot of steps, it takes a ton of faith
It takes a whole lot of something you can’t fake
I keep telling myself over and over and over and over
That nothings ever over until it’s over, until it’s over
One day it leads to another
One foot is followed by the other
And the next thing, the next thing you know is you’re ok
It was worth it, who cares if it was pretty
So it’s broken, maybe we won’t fix it
No one needs to call me pretty anyway
