On My Knees

To hold to that which is letting go Pretend there is love that time will grow Suffer all sadness that each failure allows Try to make happiness without a clue how I cannot be a prince or even try to be a virgin I cannot make myself a compleatly different person But if I had the power to be what you want me to be I would not be a liar and I would just stay me Because if my mother can love me just as I am Then there must be someone for me Who I'm sure who can
