Nine

Who am I
 To say what any of this means?
 I have been sleepwalking
 Since I was fourteen
 Now as I write my song
 I retrace my steps
 Honestly, it's easier
 To let myself forget
 Still, I check my vital signs
 Choked up, I realize
 I've been less than half myself
 For more than half my life
 Wake up
 Fall in love again
 Wage war on gravity
 There's so much
 Worth fighting for
 You'll see
 Another domino falls
 Either way
 ♪
 It looks like empathy
 To understand all sides
 But I'm just trying to find myself
 Through someone else's eyes
 So show me what to do
 To restart this heart of mine
 How do I forgive myself
 For losing so much time?
 
 Wake up
 Roll up your sleeves
 There's a chain reaction
 In your heart
 Muscle memory
 Remembering who you are
 Stand up
 And fall in love again and again and again
 Wage war on gravity
 There's so much
 Worth fighting for
 You'll see
 Another domino falls
 And another domino falls
 
 A little at a time
 I feel more alive
 I let the scale tip and feel all of it
 It's uncomfortable but right
 We were born to try
 To see each other through
 To know and love ourselves and others well
 Is the most difficult and meaningful
 Work we'll ever do
