Monica Richards - A Good Thing lyrics

Conversation with a 5-year-old version of myself This is dedicated to all the strange children we once were and still are There's something strange about you But that's a good thing What they don't know about you I can see And when no one is around I know you're magic You speak to animals And they understand I I was you I was there It feels like lifetimes ago When there was music in my head that no one else could hear There's something strange about you But that's a good thing What they don't know about you Is their loss And when they laugh at you Make you feel worthless in your own skin They don't know you're going to do some amazing things You are me You are here It feels like ages from now When your strangeness turns to strength And it all becomes so clear Everyone is lost until their heart is found Everyone feels weak Everyone breaks down Everyone needs love and a place to call their own Everyone is tired Everyone feels totally alone There's something strange about you But that's a good thing What they don't know about you I can see They say we're the Strange Ones but we are the lucky ones We grew up stronger We grew up knowing what the others take their lifetimes to understand There's nothing strange about us at all Everyone is lost until their heart is found Everyone feels weak Everyone breaks down Everyone needs love and a place to call their own Everyone must know That no one is alone
