Born This Way

Hey little backslider
I know what’s wrong with you
The truth was hardly meant to hurt you
If you keep your heart safe
Protect that little spark
Maybe the fire will find you
You carry your worry stone in your pocket
You carry your faith in a silver locket
You held your breath as they moved their lips
Reading from their comic strips
You were always looking for
A form of salvation
But the angels never sang to you
You were always looking for
A road you could ignore
Because every path you made unmade you
Every night when I close my eyes
I wonder how very hard they tried
All those who hoped to save you rope
Thinking they could make you
Tie down your heart
Some of us are born this way
Some of us are made
All of your friends;
they have things to do
Lives that turn easily;
dreams come true
Tides rock your shores
& your sirens sing
& you feel your lighthouse wash away
Some of us are born this way
Some of us are made
