Everything for Everyone

now you don't look at me

with jaded eyes

and don't you accuse me of compromise

because this is the first day of the rest of my life

today I married myself, and I became my own wife

I used to give it away

I used to give it away

I used to live and breathe and bleed for you

every day

now don't you think of me

as the keeper of the flame

because I would much prefer to be labeled insane

oh yes I'd rather be the fool out dancing in the rain

than spending my life in chronic pain

I would rather be the idiot on the corner shouting out..

I used to care, I used to cry

I used to obsess about it

I used to thi nk it was my destiny

to suffer and sigh

now I just want to be high

naturally high

sacrifice, that was my vice

I used to be that kind, I used to be that nice

I lived to serve until I found my nerve

but now I need what I deserve

I was the one who wanted everything for everyone

I was the one who wanted everything for everyone

but not anymore

so don't you judge me

you bastards of young

you son of a son

you daugher of none

no don't you tell me who and I how I need to be

as long as I'm free I will be so I'll be

my love is too much my love is too strong

and to not love myself can only be wrong

mothers with children put the mask on you first

'cause its getting a whole lot worse

I was the one who wanted everything for everyone

I was the one who wanted everything for everyone

but not anymore
