And I know you know,
You didn’t need to know me,
To break me; to change me,
To be that thing to my heart that anchors me.
And I know you didn’t know me
But you spoke to me,
Like we’ve been best friends our whole lives.
I trusted you, and you used honesty.
You showed integrity

And I know you didn’t know me
But you spoke to me,
Like we’ve been best friends our whole lives.
I trusted you, and you used honesty.
You showed integrity
You showed me a side of me I’d never seen.
Told me to gleam,
Shot an arrow through my eyes, and taught me how to see.

There may not be some magic beans,
But that day, I screamed,
Knowing I would one day be freed.
You came to me.
Unknowingly;
Surrounding me
Teaching me
But that day, I screamed,

You came to me.
Unknowingly;
Surrounding me
Teaching me
And I know that sounds like a lot.
But you taught me how to be me.
You said once,
“If you can’t see anything beautiful about yourself, get a better mirror”
You see, I have my better mirror always handy.
I know that there is a part of me that I can’t always see,
A part that people see inside of me.
And to me, that’s scary.

I asked your advice.
How to become great like you,
You taught me that practice is a virtue,
You said to write everyday,
And while I may not have followed your advice,
The more I wrote, the better I got.

The sweet sound of your music calms me,
As if the pacific had swallowed me.
Like it’s my last moment,
and the world went silent.
As if the pacific had swallowed me.
Like it’s my last moment,
and the world went silent.
Your voice booms volumes,
Drowning out the others,
To assure we’re all heard
Your voice makes me weak
Across many bridges, you've helped me walk
No longer do I need to crawl,
You taught me that I’ll never jump,
Though sometimes I need to fall
No longer do I need to crawl,
You taught me that I’ll never jump,
Though sometimes I need to fall
