My mother, she told me, "Don't be afraid to admit your mistake"
My father, he told me to act like a man
My brother, he told me, "It's the work of Fate"
My cousin, she told me it's what makes us human.

Maybe, just maybe
I'm paranoid, a little effusive and sentimental
Can't seem to control these feelings in me
Everyone in town assumed maybe I'm a little different.

My mother, she taught me to never give up
My father, he taught me to act like a man
My brother, he taught me to always refill my cup
My cousin, she taught me it's what makes us human.

Just because
I'm temperamental, a little splanchnic and I get shaken.
Can't seem to control these emotions in me
Everyone in town assumed maybe I'm a little different.
