Don't let this be my legacy An entire life of self-loathing An entire life of questioning me As this has been my history And every misstep I have made Will live two million times a day You should know much better, by now From life, there's no easy way out I never look back longingly It's not natural to long for range Or be embarassed by naivite And though the years have softened me I am still the heavy cross I bare I am still the crown of thorns I wear You should know much better, by now From life, there's no easy way out It is a privilege that you must take There's no escape, my love There's no escape There's no escape, my love There's no escape You should know much better Back in safe, mundane days By now From life, there's no easy way out Back in safe, mundane days I used to be a song, da, da, day You should know much better Back in safe, mundane days By now From life, there's no easy way out Back in safe, mundane days
