When I was youngerI thought of caringAs a reason for some to praise me, in envy"So humble and kind""No better person"Now that I'm older I've seen what I've beenRuthless, ungrateful, always trying to turn up tracksBe it about me or youSeeking out the faithful in meWith tricks of trust and gluttonyI won't wait for anyone anymoreWhen I was younger I thought of deep spacePick me up swiftly, carry me awayDrop me off willing--light years lone goneNever again seeing those who I lovedIt's not about me this time, there I go lying againPlease save my soulI don't know what I'm doing anymoreSeeking out the faithful in me with singles and a penIs it possible I'm overthinking thisIt's not what I'm not it's what I believe inIt's not what I've got, it's my peace of mindToo early to see if I'm still in the pastToo hopeful to be wasted timeIt's not what I'm not it's what I believe inIt's not what I've got, it's my peace of mindToo early to see if I'll beSeeking out the fraud in meWith compassion and honesty, I'll wait.
