HOW I FEEL

There's a chip on my shoulder 
Sometimes it's heavy 
Sometimes I feel tall

There's steel in my spine
Sometimes I'm strong 
Sometimes I'm stiff 

There's fire in my heart 
Sometimes it burns 
Sometimes it hurts

It's a different feeling 
Being hurt by those you love 
Who without a care
Just throw out some words 

Some you bear
Some you have to reject 
Trusting in your gut 
That  it's all but love

Sometimes I speak too soon
Sometimes I speak out of turn
Sometimes I'm kind, sometimes I'm harsh
Sometimes I'm right, sometimes I'm wrong

Sometimes I'm impatient 
Sometimes I'm time itself—
Placid

You encourage others who felt the same
But when it's time for yours
It can be a lot to take
Truly, I feel 

There's a chip on my shoulder 
Sometimes it's heavy 
Sometimes I feel tall

There's steel in my spine
Sometimes I'm strong 
Sometimes I'm stiff 

There's fire in my heart 
Sometimes it burns 
Sometimes it hurts...
