Letra da Música As You Are de Ellis

© ellis 2002

stop and look down at your feet
they are tired, with no relief
you run in circles around yourself
always looking somewhere else.

you’re in so much pain
you try to numb it with anything
but it doesn’t matter that you are
what you’re running from
all the time you are there

chorus:
you are a warrior, you are a master
you have potential forever after
you are an angel that’s filled with laughter
open your heart and your pain will shatter

everything falls apart in the end
things change, and you can’t hold on to them
but we try we pretend that we are lost
and we can’t find our way home again
we are taught to escape, we are taught to conceal
we are told we are bad because of how we look
or how we feel
even if you were perfect in other people’s eyes
you can’t find happiness looking on the outside

all the time you are there

chorus

...you are an angel, just open your heart
be willing to see yourself as you are
be willing to be yourself as you are
