it's funny how people leave an imprint like a knife
and that girls words hurt worse when you've known them all your life
and history never fails to repeat
and history is why I'm so quick on my feet
and we cower from the feeling that we harbor in our souls
we cower from the emptiness of abandonment we've grown from
one day you will find the person that serves as your sun
someone who can make you smile when the long hard day is done
and it's funny that it's people who cage you and it's people who set you free
and it's love that can tear and can tatter but love is all you need
and history is always doomed to repeat
and it's history that threw me out on the street
and we cower from the kindness that strangers sometimes show
because we have trouble trusting people as far as we can throw
and one day you will find the person that shines brighter that the sun
someone who can change your mind when you feel you've never won
