on the brightside - nevershoutnever!

i met a man of two feet tall
this man was quite ambitious
in a world that is so vicious
to us all

i said hi
as he replied
he said listen to these words that i have lived by my whole life

you're only as tall
as your heart will let you be
and you're only as small
as the world will make you seem
and when the going gets rough
and you feel like you may fall
just look on the bright side
your roughly six feet tall

i met a man of twelve feet tall
he towered like a giant
in a world that was defiant
of his height

i said hi
as he replied
he said listen to these words
that i have dreaded my whole life

you're only as tall
as your heart will let you be
and you're only as small
as the world will make you seem
and when the going gets rough
and you feel like you may fall
just look on the bright side
your roughly six feet tall

i am a man of six feet tall
just looking for some answers
in a world that answers none of them at all

I'll say hi
but not reply to the letters
that you write because
i found some peace of mind

cause im only as tall
as my heart will let me be
and im only as small as the world will make me seem
and when the going gets rough
and i feel like i may fall
I'll look on the bright side
im roughly six feet tall.
