When I look up at these hollowed walls of high achievement and storied victories
|
I can hear irony laughing ¡®cause you see pride where I see vanity
|
Impressing all of your friends has never been one of my intentions
|
My heart is set of different goals
|
I won¡¯t be a trophy for anyone
|
So sorry if I haven¡¯t quite lived up to your great expectations
|
You know if I could I¡¯d walk on water for you but
|
I have limitations
|
Tell me when your ego gets hungry do you shake the smaller fruit off the family tree
|
And when you go to sleep do you forget to count the black sheep
|
Sometimes what¡¯s simple math to most doesn¡¯t add up when you get behind closed doors
|
A photo may speak a thousand words but do you really get the picture I just want a life to call my own is that too much to ask for
|
The fact is I¡¯ve committed no crime here
|
and I apologize for nothing So open up your eyes and try to realize
|
That we don¡¯t share the same worldview
|
I don¡¯t mean to disrespect but don¡¯t you ever forget
|
That I can¡¯t live my life for you
|
