This song was inspired by the book "The Fault in Our Stars" by John Green.
lyrics
Tests and medicines may not extend my life
I think that only living will
I wish the world would understand
I'm still just a teenage girl
PRE-CHORUS
This weight I drag behind me
Isn't what I want you to see
CHORUS
I just wanna be okay
I just wanna be the same
I don't want you to worry about me
So can't we just be okay
Two ticking time bombs fall in love
Can we save each other?
Our fuses burn down with every hour.
will each day lead to another?
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS
Bridge
Something's can be covered up with cloth
That doesn't mean that we're ashamed
Because you can't obscure my heart
And in knowing you I'll never be the same
Knowing you I'll never be the same
Since knowing you I'll never be the same!
CHORUS
