V1-
Have you decided my heart’s in your hands
Am I devoted or at your command
All my decisions have led to this ground
Blazing a trail, with the face of a clown
V2-
What do / you see / looking / at me
Something / worthy / someone / thinking
Do I deserve an emotional voice
Cast like a child to the whim of your choice
C-
Always / looking / straight through me
(It’s all in your head)
Acting / like I’m / crazy
(That’s not what I said)
I’ve got some barbs on the tip of my tongue
Biting them back, cos they’ve already stung
I just / need you / all to see
(What’s wrong with my eyes?)
Past what you think I am
(I think you’re just fine)
I’ve got ambitions that threaten your name
Making new rules, while you’re playing your games
V3-
I’ll sing for money, I’ll sing for fame
Dance like a monkey, while cursing your name
I lack the power to turn it around
Eyes burning bright, in the face of a clown
V4-
I put / my best / face on / for you
You see/ exactly / what you / want to
Cherish the thought of subservient glee
I’ll ride the crest of that dichotomy
C-
Always / looking / straight through me
(It’s all in your head)
Acting / like I’m / crazy
(That’s not what I said)
I’ve got some barbs on the tip of my tongue
Biting them back, cos they’ve already stung
I just / need you / all to see
(What’s wrong with my eyes?)
Past what you think I am
(I think you’re just fine)
I’ve got ambitions that threaten your name
Making new rules, while you’re playing your games
Solo-
C-
Am I / getting / through to you
(Why can’t you just smile)
That’s not / something / I can do
(Don’t act like a child)
Takes a bit longer to change foolish minds
I’d wait my turn, but I don’t have the time
Someday / you may / understand
I’m much more than you think I am
Takes a bit longer to change foolish minds
I’d wait my turn, but I don’t have the time
