Plot
Columbia's 11th serial (between "Terry and the Pirates" and "The Green Archer") and the first western serial that James W. Horne solo-directed. The standard one-man-to-a-hoss and nobody walks rule of Westerns tended to cramp Horne's usual style of directing, in that he wasn't able to pour six or seven henchies into a four-door sedan and have them come tumbling out like the clowns at a circus, and the surprise with those familiar with his serials is that he didn't have all the henchmen riding around in a stagecoach or wagon. And, since they usually stayed on their horse, he was unable to have them rounding a corner on foot at an angle, freeze in surprise with their arms thrust over their heads, do a couple of takes and hot-foot it stage left for an alarmed feet-do-your-stuff exit. The character of "Deadwood Dick" in this serial is just a name that had a ring to it, was not intended to be based on the real-life "Deadwood Dick" in any manner, and those who delight in pointing out that the real "Deadwood Dick" was a black man and Columbia didn't know what they were doing miss an obvious point; the Columbia writers most likely knew that, but they weren't writing a factual history of the West and their fictional character could be what they wanted him to be. And was. That he ended up being played by the dullest actor (Don Douglas) ever to essay the lead role in a serial (at least until Republic came up with the likes of Bill Henry and Harry Lauter as serial leads) probably wasn't something they planned. This one had a little promise with veteran western actor Lane Chandler as "Wild Bill Hickok" but that promise soon faded with Hickok's demise in chapter one of this 15-chapter serial, where a renegade band led by a mysterious, masked character known as "The Skull" is terrorizing the town of Deadwood in the territory of Dakota. Dick Stanley, editor of the Dakota Pioneer Press and a leading member of the Statehood For Dakota committee, is, unknown to his fellow townsmen and committee members, the equally mysterious Deadwood Dick, who is fighting The Skull and his gang. This makes everything about even as, unknown to Stanley, fellow-committeeman banker Transon Drew is The Skull. Well, actually, The Skull is a bit ahead as his "speaking voice" in costume is that of Forrest Taylor, who is nowhere in sight among the suspected citizens. Frank Butler, Stanley's "star' reporter is killed when he discovers that The Skull has plans to build an mpire of his own, and this also raises the possibility that Butler's sister, Anne, is also in danger. Chapter One ends with Deadwood Dick involved in a fight on a railroad handcar (filled with dynamite, naturally) with Jack McCall, the slayer of Wild Bill Hickok, and the handcar crashes to the bottom of a deep gorge and crashes... and explodes. Stanley/Deadwood Dick faces 13 more cliffhangers (mainly because he keeps letting Drew in on his plans to capture The Skull),before he unmasks The Skull in Chapter 15, "The Deadwood Express," Most of the action footage involving the Deadwood Dick character shows up again in 1954's "Riding With Buffalo Bill", where Marshall Reed as Buffalo Bill sans goatee, rides around in Deadwood Dick's costume.

Will Hoge (born November 14, 1972) is an American singer, songwriter and musician from Nashville, Tennessee.
Will Hoge grew up in Franklin, Tennessee, located just south of Nashville. His sound was heavily influenced by his musician father and uncles and the extensive record collection that his father kept.
Hoge attended Western Kentucky University to study history with the plan to becoming a high school history teacher and basketball coach. He decided that he wanted to try his hand at rock and roll and began writing music. Will left the university after realizing he wanted to be a career musician.
Will released an early EP of original music with his band Spoonful in the mid-1990s. However, the band was not picked up and eventually disbanded. Some of these early songs were recycled on later albums, and are still hits with his loyal followers.
With former The Georgia Satellites guitarist Dan Baird in tow as a guitarist, Hoge began touring the American south. He independently released his first CD, Live At The Exit/In, a live set recorded at the Nashville club. His original sound drew much attention and, through constant touring, he was able to release his first studio album, Carousel.

He currently hosts Later... with Jools Holland, a music-based show aired on BBC2, on which his annual show Hootenanny, is based.
His great grandfather came from Ireland.
Holland played as a session musician before finding fame, and his first studio session was with Wayne County & the Electric Chairs in 1976 on their track "F*ck Off."
Holland was a founding member of the British pop band Squeeze, formed in March 1974, in which he played keyboards until 1981 and helped the band to achieve millions of record sales, before pursuing his solo career.

Kelly Brianne Clarkson (born April 24, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter and occasional actress. Clarkson came into prominence after becoming the winner of the inaugural season of the television series American Idol in 2002 and later was the runner-up in the television special World Idol in 2003.
In 2003, Clarkson released her debut album, Thankful, which was a commercial success and established herself in the pop music industry. The release of its first single, "A Moment Like This" (2002), broke The Beatles' record for the biggest leap to number one, from 52, in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. After parting ways with her management, Clarkson developed a more rock-oriented music with the release of her critically acclaimed sophomore album, Breakaway (2004), which sold more than 12 million copies worldwide and which garnered Clarkson more worldwide success as a pop rock artist. The album's single, "Because of You" (2005), became the best-selling single by an Idol contestant worldwide. In 2007, Clarkson took full creative control for her third album My December, which had a more rock-inspired sound and was met with controversy and moderate success. Clarkson later returned to a more pop-oriented sound with All I Ever Wanted (2009), which became a commercial and critical success. The album's lead single, "My Life Would Suck Without You" (2009), surpassed "A Moment Like This"'s record for the biggest leap to number one on a single week in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, a milestone it still holds today. Furthermore, it also became her first number one single in the United Kingdom. Clarkson's fifth studio album, Stronger, was released in 2011, containing elements from synthpop, R&B and country music. The album's single, "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" (2012), became her longest number one single and eventually became her best-selling single in the United States.
My breath smells of a thousand fags
And when I'm drunk I dance like me Dad
I've started to dress a bit like him
Early morning when I wake up
I look like Kiss but without the make up
And that's a good line to take it to
The bridge
And you know and you know
Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow so before
I'm old I'll confess
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
My bed's full of takeaways and fantasies
Of easy lays
The pause button's broke on my video
And is this real cos I feel fake
Oprah Winfrey Ricki Lake
Teach me things I don't need to know
And you know and you know
Cos my life's a mess
And it's starting to show so before
I'm old I'll confess
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
If I did it all again I'd be a nun
The rain was never cold when I was young
I'm still young we're still young
Life's too short to be afraid
Step inside the sun
And you know and you know
Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow
And you know and you know
Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow
And you know and you know
Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
You don't have to take the blame
Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
You don't have to take the blame
Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
The light of my life's been stolen
I've walked in every shade of black and I never thought I would get me back
It's funny how life can change you and make you who you are today
I wonder if God set it up that way for me to be
Strong even when it hurts
The heat it's gonna burn gotta let it burn
Strong, strong
To make a big mistake now I've run away
There's nothing like this feeling to be free and unafraid
And who ever thought I could be this brave
Learning every day
Strong even when it hurts
The heat it's gonna burn gotta let it burn
Strong, strong
To make a big mistake now I've run away
I wanna push away the boundaries
I wanna love outside the lines
I wanna stare at the sun I don't care if I go blind
Intro:
(chanting)
Yeah, you got to get going
no time to be sittin down
some people not knowing life is a cycle
you gotta know how to get around
whoo! haaa!
Chorus
Yes you got to be strong
and be all the best you can
the world is out there conquer your fears
and don't you wait too long (x2)
Verse 1
Hi! How ya doin?
Long time I haven't seen you
hope your're behaving yourself now
like a good behaving citizen
nothing comes easy
you gotta work what I'm telling you
hope and pray for the best
cause I believe in you
not like the stereotypes
cleanliness intriguing you
give thanks and praise for my life
and for us being here
children can't go to school the system killing us
there's good in us
and we always wanna be bringin (it) out
show the world what we got
the struggle continues, yow
check the conditions in which we're living, yow
ain't no one come giving, yow
got to work to be a winner
our children going to bed
without having their dinner
(Chorus)
Verse 2
People all filled with expecations
that's fine with me
opportunity comes but once
so its time for me
I don't think of failure because the sun shines for me
something in the back of my head keeps reminding me
give a listening, yuh hear?
When I call
there's good and bad
so just be good and stand tall
a lot of people out there wish for me to fall
I'm not scared,
I pray to He who have created us all
evils and the demons, whoo
I don't stuck with them
hey they don't like me
hey, what's up with them?
I just can't do without Jah love because it's like the
oxygen
I'm no in no folly
I don't inna no crap with them
(Chorus)
In her bare feet, white cotton dress
A ribbon holding back her curls
In a sweet gentle voice, she sings a lullaby
To two sleepy little girls
In the nightlight glow as her babies drift off
She looks so fragile, looks so so soft
(Chorus:)
She's strong
Solid as a rock
Like a lighthouse standing alone
She's strong got the world on her shoulders
She keeps carrying on
She can take the heat, she can take the cold winter
She's got faith there's no quit in her
She's strong
Yeah so strong
There's a crayon picture says 'We love you mom'
She keeps it in a frame on her desk
There's a friend of a friend
Who calls now and then
But she's not ready just yet
She might get lonely in the still of the night
But she'll hold out till she knows it's right
(Chorus)
And sometimes when nobody else is around
She gets down
And sometimes in a moment of weakness
A single tear falls, and that's all
She's strong
She's strong
She can take the heat she can take the cold winter
She's got faith there's no quit in her
She's strong
Yeah so strong
She's strong
I will follow wherever you lead me
Wherever you are underneith these stars is where I wanna be
And I will lay it down, this old life of mine
I leave behind all the things of the world just to follow you
I'll be strong and courageous
I'll live my life for You, my only King
'cause You're my God through all the ages
Here am I, I am Yours, send me
When I fall down and I'm broken
When I strumble on the rocks and lose my way
I will cling to Your eternal love
When I'm weak You come to me, You give me strength
I will follow wherever you lead me
Wherever you are underneith these stars is where I want to be
Here am I, I am yours, send me
In a little while you`re gonna call me
There`ll be nothing I can say
In my head there`s nothing cool today,
I only feel regret
Yet I`m out on a limb now,
`Cos you`re so discreet
In a little while you`re gonna call me
And hear me cry for a week
I won`t be you, I won`t be you now
La,la, la,la, la,la
I won`t be you, I won`t be you, now
On another day I could`ve been brave,
Could`ve faced you broad and strong
I`d stand firm and you would listen when I`d say
"Yes, I have made mistakes!",
But I made them a new doll,
And that I`m so happy now
That great future is a while away,
Today I stand all wrong
I can`t be you, so I won`t be you now
La,la, la,la, la,la
I won`t be you, I won`t be you now, now
Could`ve been brave, could`ve been strong
I can`t be you, I won`t be you now
la,la, la,la, la,la
I won`t be you, I won`t be you now
la,la, la,la, la,la
I won`t be you, I won`t be you now
la,la, la,la, la,la
I see your pain I see it grow
slowly inside you
You cannot control it
The hurting's ruthless, you cannot win
I see every smile you fake
Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain
To stand strong
Day after day, to be there for us, always
To pretend there's nothing wrong
How you feel or how it feels
No words describe it
Your body feels like a stranger
We cannot stop it, we cannot win
I see every smile you fake
Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain
To stand strong
I see every smile you fake
Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain
to stand strong
Every painful day, I'll be there for you, always
I see the fear in the things we don't understand
I see the fear in another blind man
I can't hold back this fight that stills inside
I can't hold back who I am
I know you're strong
I know you belong
I know you are strong
My beautiful one
I know you're strong
I know you belong
I know you are strong
My beautiful one
I can't turn away from what I believe
I can't destroy or deceive oh no, oh no, oh no
I know a beauty in all that I can see
I can't hold on but you can't release
I know you're strong
I know you belong
I know you are strong
My beautiful one
I know you're strong
I know you belong
I know you're strong
My beautiful one
'Cause they can't hold you
And they can't hold me
And they can't hold on
To what they can't believe
And they can't hold you
And they can't hold me
And they won't understand
Till a blindman see
I know you're strong
My beautiful one
I know you're strong
I know you belong
I know you're strong
My beautiful one
I know you're strong
And I know you belong
I know you're strong
You have never been in love
Until you've seen the stars
Reflect in the reservoirs
And you have never been in love
Until you've seen the dawn rise
Behind the home for the blind
We are the pretty, petty thieves
And you're standing on our street
Where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die
Oh my, Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die, oh, my
You have never been in love
Until you've seen the sunlight thrown
Over smashed human bones
We are the pretty petty thieves
And you're standing on our street
Where Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And the first to do time
The first of the gang to die
Such a silly boy
Hector was the first of the gang
With a gun in his hand
And a bullet in his gullet
And the first lost lad to go under the sod
And he stole from the rich and the poor
And the not very rich and the very poor
And he stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
Cold night on the mountain top
And it's the dead of the winter and the
Snow and the ice swirlin' all around
But we're not climbing down
From the top of the tower
We are filled with the power of our age
Young and proud
Hard and loud
On the wing
Everything
You know?
There are those that talk the talk
But fail when fire burns them
(They are weak)
What gives you strength
What gives you courage for tomorrow
Is inside
We learned to let experience go turn us into men
Concrete running through our veins
And it's the still of the morning long
Before dawn has broken
Hangin' so listless
Deep in the wilderness
We ride so silent and focused
All the rest of the world
Can fade to grey
In the dark
From the heart
Take the fight
All our might
And on
The boys are tough as nails and
Killer under pressure
(The time has come)
To kill the king cause we are heading for tomorrow
On the run
We gotta let the anger burn until the bitter dawn
I've just never known nobody quite as strong
[Keyboard solo - Gary]
[Guitar solo - Brendt]
So silent stands the archer
Silent in the rain
You just don't breath
Draw back waiting for the kill shot
Street walking again
And then
We've been goin' all night
Fists pumped in the air
Everybody
Time to sigh no more
Sing hail to the Chief and scream
One for all
All for one
All for one
Rise or Fall
[Guitar solo - Srdjan]

I'll be right along
'cause baby you're so
Strong...
Baby I see - you're vulnerable to me
That's your power over me
Baby, baby, I know - it's always been so
Physical love is oh so meaningful for you
You write love letters to me - strong
You know how to talk to me - so strong
Baby, I'm yours - you know
Because you're so, so strong
You would fight for me
You would starve for me
You would suffer for me
You would die for me
Well, I feel the same way too
You know I feel that way about you
I know you're mad about me

Here’s another prayer from me
I know you’re all you said you’d be
It’s just today I feel so weak
My heart is heavy
There are shadows of things unknown
And fear can whisper with a voice so cold
But I know your hands won’t let me go
I hear you say, “You’re not alone,” and
Chorus:
I will take a breath
And I won’t stop holding on
And I will trust you, I won’t be afraid
Cause you are here to keep me strong
I may not know what tomorrow brings
But you are bigger than the things I see
And through it all you’ve been my everything
My hope, my joy, my prince of peace, and
Oh I know there’ll come a day
When I will see you face to face
And I’ll look back and know you’ve led me all the way
Here’s another prayer from me
Bet you thought that I'd be broken.
Mascara streakin' down my cheek.
Devastated, out the door way;
In a daze, a state of disbelief.
I bet you liked that; seeing me get mad.
But, baby I wont satisfy your need.
I've already been there, done that.
I'll be fine, even if you leave.
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
I dont need you anymore;
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
And don't you know,
That You, were the one that made me strong;
You made me stand up on my own,
With every cruel intention, you helped me find my
Independence.
Yeah it's all because of you,
That I have the strength I do,
To turn my pain to passion, instead of crashin'.
Boy I'm thankin' you.
Boy I'm thankin you.
Thinking back on how you changed me,
Everytime, you tried to put me down.
Even though you really hurt me,
Underneath, myself is what I found.
So take a look inside these eyes now,
And say the things you want to say to me.
Cuz I've already spread my wings out;
And your the one, the one who set me free.
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
I dont need you anymore
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
And don't you know,
That you were the one that made me strong,
You made me stand up on my own
With every cruel intention you helped me find my
Independence
Yeah it's all because of you
That I have the strength I do
To turn my pain to passion instead of crashin'
Boy im thanking you,
For all the tears I cried
For all the sacrafice
For all the drama
'cuz in the end it made me stronger
So trust me I'll be fine
Baby I'll survive
Without you, in my life, but I want you to know
That you
Were the one that broke my heart
But I won't fall apart
No.. im so moving on
Cuz babyyy
You were the one that made me strong,
You made me stand up on my own
With every cruel intention you helped me find my
Independence
Yeah it's all because of you
That I have the strength I do
To turn my pain to passion instead of crashing
Boy I'm thanking you,
One that made me strong
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
Boy I'm thankin you
One that made me strong
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
Boy I'm thanking you
Lalalalalaaa ohhh
Here I am all alone
Situations overwhelming again
Be strong
I tell myself but I fall right back again
Hold on
I think I just realized something
Here I am right in your hands
There I am letting you take what you can
I won’t let this happen again
I’m too strong to fall again
A light of hope fading more each time I breathe
Decide
Right or wrong, too many roads, a wounded soul in need
Hold on
Strong

I admire, dear sister
Your struggle to surrender
To give up what you want, for what He wants
And I laude you, my sister
For your refusal to surrender
Not to let the things they say turn you away
And so I'll say
Stand up strong, cuz you belong
In the highest ranks of modesty
Stand up strong, cuz all along
You define the meaning of honesty
For your courage, under pressure
For the strength that carries you
Through the day, despite the stares
Of those who pretend, that they care
Their eyes judge you
And they question you
If only they knew
The things you do
About respect, about value
About the freedom to be you
To speak your mind, through and through
Always true
So stand up strong, cuz you belong
In the highest ranks of modesty
Stand up strong, cuz all along
You define the meaning of honesty
Why can't they see, that what you are,
Is beautiful, inside and out
Why don't they know, that it’s your deen
That makes you strong, and sets you free
Why can't they see, that what you are
Is beautiful
Why don't they know, that it’s your deen
That makes you strong, and sets you free
So my sister I pray,
You'll find, your way
And for a special day
When you can say
I'll stand up strong, cuz I belong
In the highest ranks of modesty
I'll stand up strong, cuz all along
I'm strong but I've lost the way.
Have faith in me and don't throw me away
Because I could be just like you.
Now I'm strong, better everyday.
Let's start again and throw away the chains.
I want to lift the curtains I've drawn.
I'm strong and I can do anything that I want.
It feels so wrong but I will try anyway because I can.
Now I'm strong.
I'm never turning back to feeling small.
Lost is the word for me
Chaos is all that I see
Fear caresses and plays in my hair
I don't want to go there
I like it here
My life is beating me up
And if I don't die I guess I'll go on
I guess I'll be
I guess I'll be
Reason I think leads me along
And the path that I've chosen
Isn't clear and it's long
In darkness with my eyes closed
I wander
I wonder will I ever get home to her
My life is beating me up
And if I don't die I guess I'll go on
I guess I'll be
STRONG
STRONG
Believe in a way I have to take
To face my fear
Tonight fall
And I won't go down
Purpose what is my purpose
Well Well
And I won't begin to fail
To find what's going on
My life is beating me up
And if I don't die I guess I'll go on
I guess I'll be
STRONG
X-periences make me strong
I will not trust in everyone
I will be carefull until I die
Cause nobody takes notice
When i cry, oh when I cry
My breath smells of a thousand fags
And when I'm drunk I dance like me Dad
I've started to dress a bit like him
Early morning when I wake up
I look like Kiss but without the make up
And that's a good line to take it to the bridge

I'm old I'll confess
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
If I did it all again I'd be a nun
The rain was never cold when I was young
I'm still young we're still young
Life's too short to be afraid
Step inside the sun
And you know and you know
'Cos my life's a mess
And I'm trying to grow
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
Day by day I see you
I dont know what to do
But it seems like I already know
That I want you boo
And I like the way
You keep it real with me
He's not with you for who you are
But for what you look like
And he's not right
Now I'm tellin' you
My feelings real...and I can't hide
chorus(2x)-
I can't hide the way I feel for you
And I would give anyhting to be with you
verse 2-
You dont know baby
How I feel bout you
You make my dreams come true
And there's nothin I wouldn't do for you
It makes me mad
When I see you sad
Over what someone has done to you
There's no need for you to cry
Please dry your eyes
And I'll tell you why
My love is real...I'm tellin you how I feel
chorus 2x-
bridge 2x-
Every night I think of you
I wanna know if you want me too
Will it be us til we're through
Until the day we're done
Until the day we're gone
chorus til fade-
Living inna darkness, living inna madness
I can see no light, oh Jah Jah
Living inna darkness, living inna madness
I can see no light, oh Jah
Oh, we got to be strong
We got to be strong like a big stone
I and I are the roots of the tree
So never forget your history
Believe in what you do, believe in what you want
I man tell you that we got to be
I can't afford to rest my feet
Look into my eyes you'll see what I mean
Life is a battle, the battle gets hotter
I can't deny what im feeling
Its like an endless breathing
Its in the air when we touch so right
And in my darkest hour
You surely give me the power now
And carry the day say hey
Strong am I feeling am I feeling strong
but I cant but I cant go on
alone, I cant do without you
Strong
Wanna be wanna be your love
Wanna be wanna be your one
Because I can't live without you
It's not too hard to see it
It's not too hard to do it now
We carry the day say hey
Strong am I feeling am I feeling strong
but I cant but I cant go on
alone, I cant do without you
Strong
Wanna be wanna be your love
Wanna be wanna be your one
Because I can't live without you
Because I can't live without you
Because I can't live without you
You gave me love and you gave me the answers
You took the weights right off from my shoulders
Mmm, knowing you do what you do to me
Ohh you make me make me
Strong am I feeling am I feeling strong
but I cant but I cant go on
alone, I cant do without you
Strong
Wanna be wanna be your love
Wanna be wanna be your one
Because I can't live without you
Because I can't live without you
Because I can't live without you
And I can do it now
And I can feel it now
Becoming stronger now
I wanna feel right
And I can do it now
And I can feel it now
Becoming stronger now
Can't live without you
Strong
(Strong)
[Verse 1]
The day is here that i've been waiting for
Now i know whats worth fighting for
No more thinking if its right or wrong
I'll just do what i've been dreaming of
[chorus]
Cause when your down
You will find out that your on your own
Yes your all alone
Im on my way
Im moving on and i've got to be strong
Only i can make my day
[verse 2]
I'll have it all, when tomorrow comes
I've had my share now its my acore
I'm first in line to have what's mine
It is straight ahead and i wont close my eyes yeah
[chorus]
[verse 3]
I have to walk this road alone
I've got this second chance and im carrying on
It's great to know your watching over me
But i have to make this on my own
Thats the only way
Strong I’m strong you’ll never bring me down
Strong I’m strong you’ll never bring me down
I just want to take my time to see all solutions man!
I want to take it easy, I don’t think I am wrong
People say “You’ve got to go this way”
I don’t care living from day to day
Trying to find my own way
I don’t think I’m wrong
People say “You’ve got to go this way”
I don’t care living from day to day
Trying to find my own way
I don’t think I’m wrong
Strong I’m strong you’ll never bring me down
Strong I’m strong you’ll never bring me down
I don’t think I’m wrong
I don’t think I’m wrong
I just want to take my time to see all the solutions
I don’t think! I don’t think! I don’t think I am wrong!
I just want to take my time to see all solutions man!
I want to take it easy, I don’t think I am wrong
People say “You’ve got to go this way”
I don’t care living from day to day
Trying to find my own way
I don’t think I’m wrong
People say “You’ve got to go this way”
I don’t care living from day to day
Trying to find my own way
You know I think its funny, She used to call me the strong one
But I don't think that 'strong' sleeps until three
I don't think strong watches Ricki Lake two times a day
And I don't think strong is me
I'm thinking strong is faith, accepting, then learning
But it can't mean understanding, because I don't understand
But see, I'm trying to learn that, Well being the strong one
that's a relative term
[Chorus]
I never was that strong
to hold her as high as she needs to be held
And I never was that strong
to love her so much, that she'd learn to love herself
And after I'de given her everything I can
I bury my head in these empty hands
I pray when everything falls a part
The end would spring a new start
Broken, God teach me some wisdom through this pain
Show me the sunshine behind this cloudy head of mine
And he gives me two trees, that have fallen on one another
But they're perfectly balanced with eachother
Now she is hangin' by her last root
And he is still hanging by, well, maybe two or three
So calls himself the strong one, but what he's missing
Is in a codependency, she needs you to love and you just
love her to need. I think you're only as strong as her dependency
[Chorus]
As fait would have it. someone she knows gives her a firm foundation
And the freedom to grow.
Well I never gave her that and maybe that hurt the most,
but you need to be needed, you need to learn to be alone.
