Ward Thomas - Who We Are lyrics

I found myself acting like you do today
Repeating words that you would say
I wonder if you meant to be so easy to read
Only making sense in your own way

Do you know how fearless you are?
How we've grown to appreciate the scars?
So much of you has taken us this far
You're influence has left a lasting mark
Though it took some time to realize
It's no surprise you're part of who we are

I caught myself thinking aloud like you do
Thoughts I'd never meant to turn to words
I'd like to think that I could
Be as selfless as you are
Always putting other people first

Do you know how fearless you are?
How we've grown to appreciate the scars?
So much of you has taken us this far
You're influence has left a lasting mark
Though it took some time to realize
It's no surprise you're part of who we are

I never want to reach the day
When I'm not learning from your every way
Your words will always stay
We know it isn't easy to be on your own
But you've inspired us and made a happy home

Do you know how fearless you are?
How we've grown to appreciate the scars?
So much of you has taken us this far
You're influence has left a lasting mark
Though it took some time to realize
It's no surprise you're who we are
