I guess I live in a world you'll never get a glimpse inside of
|
If the thought of me selling out gets you excited
|
Do you think everything that nobody else has thought of
|
Do you feel everything that no one else can feel
|
I do too
|
|
Why don't you write your own song
|
If mine doesn't do it for you
|
You might get it all wrong
|
Or you might create the hit
|
You wish that I would write for you
|
'Cause I haven't been able to do what you need
|
|
And you're right there fighting for what I find appalling
|
Bringing me further down than I've already fallen
|
And you tell me that I only have one chance to win
|
And you only want to take me where I've never been
|
I'm with you
|
|
Why don't you write your own song
|
And I won't have to hear it
|
When you get it all wrong
|
I'll find a way to clear it
|
From my memory of you
|
You just do what you have to do
|
'Cause I'm not listening
|
|
Why don't you write your own song
|
If mine doesn't do it for you
|
You might get it all wrong
|
Or you might create the hit
|
|
Why don't you write your own song
|
I'll find a way to clear it
|
From my memory of you
|
You just do what you have to do
|
'Cause I'm not listening
|
