Bum me a cigarette; buy me a beer.
Till I''m happy to be here.
(... Am i just a spark?)
Be like the flower
Who even gives its fragrance
To the hand that crushes it.
I can't laugh too hard, I'm on a diet.
(oh it's a riot)
I want back the years
that you took when I was young...
I was young...
I was young, but it stung.
(oh, take it all away)
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
For nothing gold can stay.
The doubts. You had to save me from my constant doubts. That deep-seeded feeling that I wasn’t good enough for anything, I was a fake at my job, I wasn’t your equal, my friends would forget me if I moved away for a month. It wasn’t as easy as hearing voices, nobody was telling me this. It was just something I knew. Everyone else was playing along but I was sure that one day they would all stop.
