Yeah, I feel helpless when you're hurting
Your silence just isn't working
We were kids on Catherine Street just yesterday
We were the stray cats singing in the alleyway
We can choose who we love
And you can lose what was never yours
We can decide what we do now
And who we run with
And who we won with By your side is where I'll be standing
Cause when you love someone,
it's never demanding Cause none of your darkness will scare me away
Cause nobody's letting go of chosen family
We spent mornings at Big Pete's gossiping
comfy We got class from Mary Jo's,
there was no stopping
We were outcasts who fumbled till we found someone
We knew the art of growing up is never done
We can choose who we love
And you can lose what was never yours
We can decide what we do now
And who we run with
And who we won with
By your side is where I'll be standing Cause when you love someone,
it's never demanding
Cause none of your darkness will scare me away
Cause nobody's letting go of chosen family
Chosen family
