Up and down

smile to frown

inside out

confidence to doubt

right side in

grace to sin

this brain I'm in

won't let me in

i'm happy, i'm sad

i'm hyper, i'm mad,

from one thing to the next;

i'm really quite perplexed

that i have come this far

with all of my scars

but when i look up at the stars

i know that the time is ours

today is my day to stand up and say

that i will be okay.
