I and I

[Verse 1: Bayside] I've got a stage and a mic Which I use to say things you won't like But I spent years thinking I was alone Now I know that I'm not And I'm sharing that comfort with those Who think that hope is lost [Hook: Bayside] Oh, I'm so proud of where I am I'm learning where to stand or to tread lightly So hold back Steadfast you've got to breathe And be content Just count to ten like all the experts say If the drugs don't seem to work They've got a padded room for you to get your just deserts [Verse 2: Bayside] If I could choose my own name I'd choose something that's bold and fits Like anger, aggression, or cunningly brash By the skin of my teeth But with timing and class Oh, woe is me Oh, woe are us Not anymore, we stand up for ourselves We're like captains at war Who'll get followed to Hell [Hook: Bayside] [Outro: Bayside] I and I, we're taking control of our lives I and I, we're taking control of our lives I and I, we're taking control of our lives 'Til everything's alright I and I, we're taking control of our lives I and I, we're taking control of our lives I and I, we're taking control of our lives 'Til everything's alright [Hook: Bayside]
