Communication… I wait to see if we could ever get together And talk like we used to We get together and we'd talk…like we used to But you don't want to you want a separation and now that's strike three I tried everything, I work so hard for you to constantly hear how I fail and abandon you
I put my heart in a dream and now that dream it makes sure the baby, she has food to eat and your fancy house gets paid for, you hear me? you never learned one thing no, you never believed in me so if you're gonna leave get out just remember this is what I'm all about…
I do it for the love I do it for the rain I do it for the passion i do it for the pain i do it for the rush i do it for the doubt i do it for my daughter, man cuz she's what I'm about i do it for my mom i do it for my dad i do it for my sanity its hanging from a thread i do it for the audience who understands the need standing on the stage cut the shit and let it bleed
so pack it up, pack it in write it up, write it down just remember that i told you it's what I'm all about
i’ll miss the tour where you told me “not to come home again” an ex-boyfriend was taking my place at our first Lamaze how hard that was because your voice so crooked and wrong you were proud of your intentions like a motherfuckin' nuclear bomb
so I lived in a hotel room till the day she was born and i never knew what words to say that could get us through our first chance at divorce you promised change and i believed, I walked right back into the same so if you're gonna leave… go away
I do it for the love I do it for the rain I do it for the passion i do it for the pain i do it for the rush i do it for the doubt i do it for my daughter, man cuz she's what I'm about i do it for my mom i do it for my dad i do it for my sanity its hanging from a thread i do it for the audience who understands the need standing on the stage cut the shit and let it bleed I do it for my brother I do it for his wife I do it for my manager cuz God he saved my life I do it for the confidence I do it for release I do it cuz i'm sick of being sad it's for the peace I do it for the sunshine for my friends I did it for you…for you over and over and over again but you'll never understand (so fuck it)
so pack it up, pack it in write it up, write it down just remember that i told you it's what I'm all about
Get out...get outta my life...
I do it for the LOVE…for the love... for my daughter...for my daughter for the love...for my daughter...
