Work like you don’t need money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like no one's watching. ¦ I like change - but only when everything stays the same.

Thank you to everyone,
Who pushed me down,
Forced me underwater,
Destined to drown.

Thank you to everyone,
Who broke my heart,
It was torn to pieces,
Right from the start.

Thank you to everyone,
Who excluded me,
I'll never be involved,
With your games that I see.

Thank you to everyone,
Who taught me to rise,
Keeping me down for a while,
Stifled my cries.

Thank you to everyone,
Who pulled me from the ground,
Your strength kept me alive,
Your advice a heavenly sound.

Thank you to everyone,
Who hurt me in every way,
I found the right friends,
And now have a reason to stay.
