You've Done Nothing

you don't know

what you want to be

you don't know

what you want to do

never going to amount

too much of anything

so what's the difference

if you win or lose?

well that's something,

well isn't that something

you've done nothing wrong

and it's never your fault

you've done nothing

don't care

where your friends have gone

because you never really

needed them anyway

never going to be

exactly who you are

because you try too hard

to be just like them

well that's something

well isn't that something

you've done nothing wrong

and it's never your fault

you've done nothing

you've got brains in your head

feet in your shoes

you can steer yourself

any way you choose

you're on your own

and you know what you know

and it's up to you

to decide where you'll go
