Think Again
Venice Lyrics

This here's a story, I sing for you
I'm going to tell you a true story through my song.

It may sound funny, but know it's true
Even if it seems ridiculous, everything I'm about to say actually happened.

I hope you get it, before I'm through, I hope you do
I want you to understand the message I'm trying to convey.

I miss the strawman, and dottie two
I miss two people from my past.

I've heard the lyin', the tinman's blue
I've encountered dishonesty in people, even in someone who seems invincible like the tinman.

I've seen the witches, both good and bad, I'm glad I had
I've come across different types of people, some good and some bad, and I'm grateful for those experiences because they've taught me important lessons.

I held the rabbit, the rabbit died
I experienced failure despite my efforts and felt the pain of it.

Talked to the preacher, the preacher lied
I was disappointed when a respected figure misled me.

I held my mother, my mother cried
I comforted my mother and witnessed her emotions firsthand.

Cried for my father
I mourned the loss of my father.

And so please don't talk about life to me
Don't try to give me advice on how to live because I've already faced life's challenges.

I've seen more than most people my age have seen
I've experienced a lot in my life, more than others who are my age.

And there ain't no rules on how it's gotta be
There's no strict guideline on how to live life.

Oh and please don't talk about love to me
Don't try to tell me how to love because I have my own way of doing it.

'Cause I've given love and I've received
I know what it's like to both give love and receive it.

And you know I'm gonna love just who I please
I have the freedom to love whoever I want.

I crossed an ocean and wrote this song
I traveled a great distance to share this song with you.

A million people, but I can't find one
Despite being surrounded by many people, I feel alone.

I loved Katrina, but now she's gone, gone to my father
I had a love for someone named Katrina, but she has passed away and joined my father.

This here's a story, I sing for you
Once again, I'm telling you a story through my song.

It may sound funny, but know it's true
Although some parts may seem strange, everything is based on real life moments.

I hope you get it, before I'm through, I hope you do
I really want you to understand this message in my song.

(Chorus)
A repeat of the main message of the song.
