The Sum of Who We Are - Framing Hanley

I pride myself on my perserverance

Though my present opinions

Have been known to start some wars

Shotgun shells, but more of your loaded questions

Since an adolescence I was raised to stay the course

The sum of who we are

Outweighs the battle-scars and weary hearts

I’ll be the best mistake you ever made

You’ll ever make

The warning signs were there but disregarded

The way you played your cards

It was hard to watch the reckoning

You stole the passion in my bones

I was some stray without a home

But you left me breathing and now you’re gonna pay

The sum of who we are

Outweighs the battle-scars and weary hearts

I’ll be the best mistake you ever made

You’ll ever make

I’ll forgive, but won’t forget

A cloud still looms o-o-ver head

Brand my skin to remember this

I can’t say that you’ll be missed

The sum of who we are

Outweighs the battle-scars and weary hearts

I’ll be the best mistake you ever made

You’ll ever make

The sum of who we are

Outweighs the battle-scars and weary hearts

I’ll be the best mistake you ever made

You’ll ever make

I’ll be the best mistake that you ma-a-a-de

I’ll be the best mistake that you’ll make
