I’ve been racking my brain.
Trying to figure something
To make me irresistible to you.
I’m trying so hard,
Waving my arms and
Runnin round in circles,
When I’m just a glass you look right through.
That seems to be the way it is.
That seems to be my lot in life.
I might as well turn and face the fact that I was wrong.
Cause you won’t see me til I’m gone.
You’re two days late.
I’m one year early.
So tell me what am I supposed to think?
My bags are packed, the cab is crammed,
And the meter’s burning
And in you’re walking with my drink.
That seems to be the way it is.
That seems to be my lot in life.
I might as well turn and face the fact that I was wrong.
Cause you won’t see me til I’m gone.
It’s more than just not being on the same page;
I don’t know what book you’re reading.
And that’s the way it is.
It seems to be my lot in life.
I might as well turn and face the fact and lose the fiction.
Cause you won’t see me til I’m gone.
And that’s the way it is.
That seems to be my lot in life.
I might as well turn and face the fact that I was wrong.
Cause you won’t see me til I’m gone.

So I ate the apple,
And I found what I was searching for.
Didn’t take very long
Til I’m running for the exit door.
Brave New World with eyes wide open.
Nothing is as I had dreamed it’d be.
Brave New World with eyes wide open.
And I can’t go back to sleep.
I’m gonna think a little harder
Before I jump into the fire.
Got my ammunition,
My makeup, and my shiny toys.
And I’m off to charm school
Where I’ll learn to play with all the boys.
Brave New World with eyes wide open.
Nothing is as I had dreamed it’d be.
Brave New World with eyes wide open.
And I can’t go back to sleep.
I’m gonna think a little longer
Before I jump into the fire.
Brave New World with eyes wide open.
Nothing is as I had dreamed it’d be.
Brave New World with eyes wide open.
And I can’t go back to sleep.
I’m gonna think a little harder.

The path of least resistance
Is where I want to be.
I want to go the distance,
But there’s so much I can’t see.
I will step out on faith.
Go where it takes.
Hope for the best.
And let God sort out the rest.
This is my song.
I remember what you told me
Back in zero-four.
Nobody’s gonna take my hand
And lead me through the door.
When the world gets crazy,
Stop and count to ten.
Gotta shake the dirt off,
Get up, and start again.
I will step out on faith.
Go where it takes.
Hope for the best.
And let God sort out the rest.
This is my song.
And I don’t know where I’ll end up.
And there are no guarantees.
But I will follow my heart.
And that’s the best place to be.
I will step out on faith.
Go where it takes.
Hope for the best.
And let God sort out the rest.
This is my song.

Interesting.
Interesting.
Watching you work so hard to figure me out.
I’ll tell you one thing
Cause time is wasting.
Hear me so there isn’t any doubt.
All you gotta do is give me what I want
And I won’t let you down.
All you gotta do is give me what I need
And I won’t turn around.
All you gotta do is everything I please
I tell ya, it’s so easy.
Oh, no, I’m not difficult.
Just give me what I want.
What’s with that face?
Aren’t you happy?
I’m just trying to make it easier on you.
You know you’re lucky.
You should be smiling.
You found someone to tell you all the truth.
All you gotta do is give me what I want
And I won’t let you down.
All you gotta do is give me what I need
And I won’t turn around.
All you gotta do is everything I please
I tell ya, it’s so easy.
Oh, no, I’m not difficult.
Just give me what I want.
All your love and all your money.
That’s just the first step, honey.
If you don’t want to lose yourself,
You best go find someone else.
All you gotta do is give me what I want
And I won’t let you down.
All you gotta do is give me what I need
And I won’t turn around.
All you gotta do is everything I please
I tell ya, it’s so easy.
Oh, no, I’m not difficult.
Just give me what I want.
Give me what I want.

I will answer every time you call.
I will reach out every time you fall.
But something’s missing
Inside of my heart.
And I’ll let you think you ended this.
I’ll let you think you don’t need a thing.
And you’ll go your way one up on me.
Cause that’s what you need to believe.
That’s what you need to believe.
You will swallow your pride one day.
And you will want me back, like in old ways.
And I will follow
Until you grow cold.
And I’ll let you think you ended this.
I’ll let you think you don’t need a thing.
And you’ll go your way one up on me.
Cause that’s what you need to believe.
That’s what you need to believe.
I can take
Everything you dish out.
And you’ll never know.
That I don’t feel the same.
No, I don’t feel the same anymore.
I’ll let you think you ended this.
I’ll let you think you don’t need a thing.
And you’ll go your way one up on me.
I’ll let you think you ended this.
I’ll let you think you don’t need a thing.
And you’ll go your way one up on me.
Cause that’s what you need to believe.
That’s what you need.

This is scarier than anything I’ve been through yet.
This is crazier than all of my PMS.
I am numb inside, no fragrance no emotion.
I can’t even seem to well up my devotion.
But I can choose my life
And I chose to be with you.
So I won’t dwell too long
On what I’m going through.
Cause I don’t feel like
Anything, anything at all.
I don’t feel
Anything, anything. Oh no.
Maybe I should just consider this a blessing.
Take a break from all the drama and confessing.
I should use this time to gather my momentum.
So I can spill it out next time I throw a tantrum.
I should revel in
What I don’t feel inside.
But I think that I will
Find a place to hide.
Cause I don’t feel like
Anything, anything at all.
I don’t feel
Anything, anything. Oh no.
I’m gonna sit this one out.
I’m gonna wait this one out.
I’m gonna sit this one out.
Cause I don’t feel like
Anything, anything at all.
I don’t feel anything,
Anything at all.
I don’t feel like
Anything, anything at all.
I don’t feel
Anything.
