So I thank God that I'm alive
almost every day and night
it keeps me nice and warm and safe inside
When I die all of my friends
will come and give their last goodbyes Tell me all the things they couldn't say when I was alive
Well I'm not a man and I won't be
'cause on the day I turned thirteen
I realized no man is the man they wanna be
So tell me where you think I stand
Tell me everything I've planned
won't turn to dirt and fall to pieces in my hands
You know me too well
You know me better than I know myself
So break my arms and crush my knees
to get your message through to me
make me curl up and ball myself to sleep
Cuz I'm nowhere without your sweet touch and
without his righteous hand on us
so come on let me fall and tell him this is too much
You know me too well
You know me better than I know myself
So I thank God that I'm alive
almost every day and night
it keeps me nice and warm and safe inside...
