Keefe & Margo: It didn't take us the whole day.

Vanessa: “Better Than Love”, Hayley Kiyoko

All those years, outside looking in / All that time, never even knowing just how blind I’ve been / Standing here, it’s, oh, so clear: I’m where I’m meant to be /  All those days chasing down a daydream / All at once, everything looks different now that I see you / Look at you, as fragile as a flower / Mother knows best / On your own, you won’t survive / When will my life begin? / And violence-wise, my hands are not the cleanest / You can count me with the dreamers / This is why you never should have left / They weren’t kidding when they called me, well, a witch / Yes, I’ve had the odd complaint, but on the whole I’ve been a saint / And don’t underestimate the importance of body language / Wish I could be part of that world / She don’t got a lot to say, but there’s something about her / He’s become a a one-man rise in crime / You ain’t never had a friend like me! / When did you last let your heart decide? / Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling through an endless diamond sky / I can’t go back to where I used to be / I wish I could be the perfect daughter / If I go there’s just no telling how far I’ll go /  I can lead with pride, I can make us strong / All the time wondering where I need to be is behind me / I’m on my own, to worlds unknown / Well, it’s nice to see that humans never change / So, what can I say except ‘You’re welcome’? / I will sparkle like a wealthy woman’s neck / Send your armies, but they’ll never be enough / You try to be tough, but your armor’s just not hard enough / Sometimes the world seems against you / The journey may leave a scar / The people you love will change you / And nothing on earth can silence the quiet voice still inside you / I will carry you here in my heart / Come what may, I know the way / I have crossed the horizon to find you / They have stolen the heart from inside you / Born of cold and winter air / Strike for love and strike for fear / There’s beauty and there’s danger here / It’s like you’ve gone away / They say, ‘Have courage’,  and I’m trying to / 'Cause for the first time in forever, I won’t be alone / Don’t let them in, don’t let them see / Be the good girl you always have to be / Conceal, don’t feel, put on a show / Make one wrong move and everyone will know / All my life has been a series of doors in my face / But with you, I found my place / I’ve been searching my whole life to find my own place / A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I’m the queen / The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside / Couldn’t keep it in… Heaven knows I tried / Don’t let them in. Don’t let them see / Be the good girl you always have to be / Conceal, don’t feel / The cold never bothered me anyway / The fears that once controlled me, can’t get to me at all / No right, no wrong, no rules for me / You’ll never see me cry / I’m never going back, the past is in the past / I’m sorry, secret siren, but I’m blocking out your calls / I’ve had my adventure, I don’t need something new / I’m afraid of what I’m risking if I follow you / Every day’s a little harder as I feel my power grow / I have always been a fortress, cold secrets deep inside / I will never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter / Now I see, that if I were truly to be myself, I would break my family’s heart / Why is my reflection someone I don’t know? / Tranquil as a forest, but on fire within / Mysterious as the dark side of the moon / You’re unsuited for the rage of war
