No one is harder on me than myself    Or so it seems    Some say that you are my curse, my own worst enemy    I think they're wrong    They never thought our life could be like this    They never thought       I'll be your safe ride home when you call me, I'll be everything and more    When you call my name       I thought no one is smarter than me    No, I don't need anyone’s help!    Or so it seemed    You changed me for the good    They never understood    But even if they tried I doubt they could    So take my nervous hand and we can take a stand    We don’t have to live by their demands    I never thought life could be like this    I never thought       When I'm with you there's no worries    When I’m with you there's no shame    When I'm with you, I’m secure    We choose to live against the grain    They could say we lack the progress    They could say that we're a mess    They could say we'll never make it    And I know we're better than their test    And I don't hear them anyway
