Mother, I'm still the boy you raised,
I learn from my mistakes, and do better.
And father, I'll never be half the man,
But I'm trying the best I can,
To keep us all together.

Rather be damned than have to go through life alone,
Yeah, I just wanted you to know that you are the ones.
Rather be damned than have to make it on my own,
Yeah, I just want you all to know that you are the ones.

Sister, we don't talk that much,
But when you grow up, I'll be there forever.
And brother, they say that you're a lot like me,
Well that's not what you want to be,
Cause you can do so much better.

Rather be damned than have to go through life alone,
Yeah, I just wanted you to know that you are the ones.
Rather be damned than have to make it on my own,
Yeah, I just want you all to know that you are the ones.

You are the drug that keeps me sane,
You are the smile that I can't fake,
You are the ones, you are the ones.

You are the high when I am low,
You are the hours on the phone,
You are the ones, you are the ones

You are the sharp end of my pen
You are the ink under my skin;
You are the ones, you are the ones.
