Strength Lyrics by Devi McCallion

Self-Titled

2014

You should sing on
And hope the notes will keep coming
You should wish for
The strength to keep running
And you should wish for the confidence to love yourself too
While you're asking for that stuff you're not gonna get
While you're asking for stuff that you'll have to pull out of your own head

Because you can hold on to your strength
Or let it slip away
Because you can hold on to yourself
Or you can fold yourself away
You can curl up in a ball until there's almost no evidence
That you ever existed at all in the world
But the world won't go away
And none of that will help you escape

So just slip away to
A microcosm of your own backyard​
Because you can always stay where you know where your weaknesses are
But that's not a promise to you that life wouldn't still be hard
Because life finds a way to be hard anyways
Because life finds a way to be hard anyways

It's okay, you're not wounded
You're just slower than the rest
It's just a matter of time
Even when time seems like a test
Of your mind and your value
It's okay to be upset
Not that you need me to tell you

It's okay, you're not stupid
That's just a feeling that you get
The world's never really ever worked
In a way that made sense
Things can fall into place
Or they'll crush your body into your head
Not that you need me to tell you

You should sing on
You should sing on
You should sing on
You should sing on
You should sing on
You should sing on
You should sing on
You should sing on
