Weathered Hearts - Knick Knack Lyrics

I've been standing, I've been standing all my life
In your shadows, in your shadows
And I learned to grow, in the light that made it's way through your holes

It's not all-right, that this is the way, that I found my light
Learning to grow by my poking and pulling this light through the shadows

Sometimes, I'm grateful, but I'm not thankful
I'm going to take what I need to be fine
Sometimes, I'm thankful, but I'm not grateful
I'm going to listen to this voice of mine, giving my story line

I've been standing, I've been standing all my life
In your corner, like a sentimental knick knack no one likes

I'm losing my shine, from all of the extra dust that falls on me from your life
If I'm really quiet, I may just fit in with these finer things you have acquired

Now you have the right, to be feeling bright, cause you have been wronged
But this is MY song

Sometimes, I'm grateful, but I'm not thankful
I gotta take what I need to be fine
Sometimes, I'm thankful, but I'm not grateful
I'm going to listen to this voice of mine, giving my story line
