[Verse 1]
Appreciation comes after the fight
Appreciation for the darkest colors in my life
The darkest grays and all the shades of blue
The thousand times I thought that I
Would never be seeing you again
But I can't

[Chorus]
I can't pretend
I'm always on the mend
There's forks in the road forcing colors to blend
When the medication fails me, know that I use
The fact that I'm just glad to be here
I'm just glad to be here with you

[Verse 2]
Thankful for the things that we forget
My head works likе a hearse
So what is therе to miss
About biting back the hand that feeds
Just to feel some urgency
Just to know that I can bleed
Just to know that

[Chorus]
I can't pretend
I'm always on the mend
There's forks in the road forcing colors to blend
When the medication fails me, know that I use
The fact that I'm just glad to be here
I'm just glad to be here with you
[Bridge]
So, let me fall if you must
I'm fine
And I know I'm like this all the time
This is just the way I'm designed
This is just the way that I'm designed

[Chorus]
How I can't pretend
I'm always on the mend
There's forks in the road forcing color to blend
When the medication fails me, know that I use
The fact that I'm just glad to be here
I'm just glad that

I can't pretend
I'm always on the mend
There's forks in the road forcing color to blend
When the medication fails me, know that I use
The fact that I'm just glad to be here
I'm just glad to be here with you

[Outro]
With you
With you
To be here with you
