Lyric

Why were you born? They ask me

There’s really no reason at all

Why do we even live, anyway?

No one can ever know

I want to do the things I want to do

But somehow I can’t make a move

All I do is paint them in my head

And nothing comes alive

I never got what I was seeking

No one came to care for me

Just the useless kid I’ve always been

Is it enough to just keep living?

Why were we born? I don’t have the answer

But I remember the day I came to be

The smells, the vibrations when I ran

The way I screamed when someone screamed at me

The world may be a mess today

But even back then, wasn’t it the same?

The only difference is me now

The only difference is me now

Changing yourself is never easy

No matter how hard I struggle

These feet won’t obey my will

They just won’t move

So I gave myself orders

Even when fear has frozen me

Sweating, trembling from head to toe

Even if someone laughs at me

“Keep going, keep going,” I repeat

Over and over, to myself first

Before I tell anyone else

I have to fight, I have to move

Keep going, keep going, my shaking feet

Don’t tremble now, don’t let me down

Keep going, keep going, my tired feet

Make just a small, tiny miracle

This isn’t a fairy tale

This isn’t about being cool

The world hasn’t changed a bit

But I’ve moved a little

I’ve changed a little

I’ve changed a little
