You Were It

You were it
You’re the one, the only one who understood it all
And when we fought out loud
You’d be the one who would make me feel so small
You could kill
You could hurt
You could bring out the worst in everyone you knew
But no one could ever bring the worst out of you
And I am fine
All the pain is gone
I once had a heart
Now I have a song
And you were sly
You were fast
You were built to last
And you lasted 'til the end
And I would fight
I would cry and lay down and die
And then get up again
