Just another casualty.<br /> It&#039;s sad but true.<br /> And even dead I&#039;m still ahead<br /> of most of you.

Stuck in the middle of
Right and wrong
Choice and consequence.
It's making you stronger
If that makes any sense.
Cant always get what you want
Or what you need.
Love wasn't built for speed,
Isn't built at all.
It's grown,
Slow and steady
And when you're ready
It is a pedestal to lean on,
Stand upon
Doesn't matter if it's
Right or wrong
As long as it makes you happy.
