Once upon a time, no one told me life would be like this
All the hurt and the shame, all the love and pain, would be like this
And who knew that we would get so far and feel so lost
They say for nothing but I don't think so we who we are
We are strong and we are brave
How we got here is all ok
Now we know how to act
We've been through scenes and that is that
Maybe someday we'll be something
But as for now we can be nothing
And it's okay to fall and cry
As long as we stand up and dry our eyes
So we can cry all we want now
Every day, we play this game of then and now
The do's the don'ts the wants the won'ts of life itself
And all the cards we play to win seem out of bounds
No one says we have to wait for things to come around
We are here and we are now
Look around you can pick us out
Of the crowds that form around you
No one knows about you now
Maybe someday we'll be something
But as for now we can be nothing
And it's okay to fall and cry
As long as we stand up and dry our eyes
But look where we are now
Once upon a time we had no idea how to live our lives
And we didn't know that it would all just come in time
And who knew that we could get so far and feel so lost
But we found our way so don't look now cause we know who we are
We are strong and we are brave
How we got here is all ok
Now we know how to act
We've been through scenes and that is that
Maybe someday we'll be something
But as for now we can be nothing
And it's okay to fall and cry
As long as we stand up and dry our eyes
But look who we are now
