Already Happened


I was strange, I was weird, I was a popular outcast I was scared, I was confused, I really am still But life's strange, its weird, its going by too fast But I'm strong, and I'm here, and I always will I'm stubborn, and I'm angry, but I care Strange because I'm in bad situations, but... I stay, strong as an ox, fragile as my hair I'm looking back, scared, but the I just tut, "Hey, its happened, and I'm stronger now," And I help others, I try to make them see That they're stronger, but they ask why and how I've always shrugged and said, "I don't know why you and me I don't know why it happens to us, to you and I Its happened, and its sad, but you can't really change the past Its the past, the guidelines, but its done and already gone by The present is a gift we never get; the future, a present that will last You see, its already happened, already past, but its not us But hey, I'm scared, you are too, together we can be No reason to hiss, no reason to curse, no reason to cuss Because your past is a lock, but your future is the key."
