you're not alone

You're Not Alone

by Pat Tenneriello

VERSE 1
I lived a life of a little boy, who grew up with shame
Had to fend for myself no one else could relate, hey kid can you say your n-n-name
But I finally realized, that I was not the only one
And with acceptance, a new life has begun

CHORUS
Cause I'm not alone, I'm not alone
And together we are truly free to say what is ours
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
I'll let my true voice come alive, cause I'm not along

VERSE 2
I know the way your hear starts to race, when the phone starts to ring
And I know the fear that you must overcome, just to say anything
Cause I live your story, and I know what you feel inside
So remember, with me you don't have to hide

CHORUS
Cause you're not alone, you're not alone
And together we are truly free to say what is ours
You're not alone, You're not alone
So let your true voice come alive, cause you're not alone

BRIDGE
To know, that we're not alone
Can give us the courage to face, the verbal unknown
To be, all we can be
To be in control of our lives, and truly be free

VERSE 3
So open your mouth and just be yourself, there's no other way
And though they'll be times when that's so hard to do, tomorrow is another day
We don't have the answers, but letting go is just as good
And together, we'll be understood.

CHORUS
Cause we're not alone, we're not alone
And together we are truly free to say what is ours
You're not alone, You're not alone
So let your true voice come alive,
Let your true voice come alive, my friends if you stutter realize
That you're not alone
