Lyrics

Everyday I look in the mirror and I'm always changing
Everyday I look in the mirror and I'm never quite the same
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me, I'm told
Well, I'm not so sure I believe all that hype
I suffer from things that I hear all the time
- to tell you a little bit about me
I'm clearly a fool full of uncertainty
But I've no intentions of closing my eyes or my ears
I'll work my way through overcoming my fears
Time moves on and I do too
Why waste my time wondering what else there's to do?
Expecting the worst is the best thing I've found
Good intentions are paving the way
Don't you remember back in second grade;
All of the attempts they made?
They taught us of the golden rule
"Please take it with you after school." they told us
Now fourteen years later, here among my peers
It's finally started to make sense to me
I'm shaping the future, but gradually
Since I've now learned by heart that there are no guarantees
