just listen to me
please don't speak
silence is sometimes
the best thing to say

you've never heard a story like mine
you'll be shocked when you hear it for the first time
heartbreak, heroes, I've got it all
but none of it was expected
no, none of it was planned

I probably should be dead ten times over
so many times i've come so close
but someone reached down and saved me
as I was slipping off the edge

so much of this should not have happened
so many things improbable
I learned to expect the unexpected
because you never really know

you've never heard a story like mine
you'll be shocked when you hear it for the first time
heartbreak, heroes, I've got it all
but none of it was expected
no, none of it was planned

I don't hold resentment for the past
It does not diminish my hope
it still hasn't left me
but I try not to let it affect me any more

you've never heard a story like mine
you'll be shocked when you hear it for the first time
heartbreak, heroes, I've got it all
but none of it was expected
no, none of it was planned

you've never heard a story like mine
you'll be shocked when you hear it for the first time
heartbreak, heroes, I've got it all
but none of it was expected
no, none of it was planned
