Understanding Makes You Stronger

There's things in life i'll never understand,
Some things I wish I could.
There are things in life I wish never happened,
Words never spoken, songs never sung.
There are things you think you understand,
But it's only a thought in your head.
A lie or belief sending you into the unexpected,
But really it's only a dream.
It's a matter of knowing the truth,
Setting guidelines of what to believe.
Realising what could happen if you believe the lies,
Knowing what it's like to be in love.
But it's when this all disappears when you don't understand,
When everything around you begins to turn upside down.
But that's what's made me stronger,
That's what's made me who I am!
