I remember them telling me Something bad’s gonna happen We are alone in everything Especially in dying I’ve got a mark where your picture was You spun me out of the photograph And asked me how I bend the light I just see the negatives
It’s taken me so long to see You never saw the best in me Now you’re gonna see me as I am
In spite of you, in spite of you Losing sleep each time I wake You’ve left me nothing left to hate but you In spite of you Lock my love inside a cage And now I’m happy in this state for you
See I remember the difference Between the doubt and significance I wasn’t born I just stumbled in Now I don’t believe in anything You set me up like a failure Before I’d even begun So I’d rather keep my addictions Than be a slave to anyone
The prying eyes that never sleep Will watch you while you pray for me Now you’re gonna see what you have done
And if I ever do succeed I hope that you will think of me And know that I have only just begun
