Wandering Daughter

It seemed like everyone I knew was dying
I looked in the mirror and I was on fire
Somebody yelled out "Hey, stop drop and roll"
I said "That might save my skin, but it won't save my soul"
That might save my skin, but it won't save my soul

...

And telling the truth the best way that I'm able
I'm placing my cards all face up on the table
It's ok to be scared, you don't have to act tough
Just take all that pain and turn it into love
Take all that pain and turn it into love

And let your emotions be fuel to your flame
Being on fire will keep you awake
If somebody yells out "Hey, stop drop and roll"
Say "That might save my skin but it won't save my soul"
That might save my skin but it won't save my soul

These words of course are not my own, but I have been appreciating them.
(Thanks, Kimya Dawson)

i'm lost and alone and i'm fair and i'm free
you am what you is and i are who i be
what i'm lacking in strength i make up for in smarts
you keep your stability i'll keep my heart

So long, been good to know ya,
i've got to keep moving along
