Burn Victims

They say the things that you love will never stay Is that really true? I guess you made everyone leave before they could hurt you but who taught this to you Hurting people will always be hurting people It was you that made me me Every storm made me soak to find strong roots I am reminded (I am reminded) All my roots are starting to show yet I'm still trying to grow And I am reminded (I am reminded) there is still hope And I hope one day you will understand pain is just a brand I've given my life to keep it away from you skin And I hope one day you will understand pain is never planned And the start of a cycle is always the end when we are the victims And that's how I know I need to write about this for the youth that never get told the truth That's my problem I've got intentions on both sides stitched together with lies and more songs left to write Do things Write this time about how to untangle all the knots that we kept tied My stomach is weak because you made me me and someone made you you We are the victims and I am the hope And I hope one day you will understand pain is just a brand I've given my life to keep it away from you skin And I hope one day you will understand pain is never planned And the start of a cycle is always the end when we are the victims You, you are the victim and I am still learning that I can be the hope
