I am me
I am everything and nothing I want to be
I lead my way
I make the day
mine
You do not control me
even in your death
if we are not worth pining for
you are not worth crying for
you don't know mental illness
you're just a whisper in the wind
cowardly cricket
nickel and diming
is not simpler this way
why did I ever listen to you
you told me I never thought for myself
And look at YOU!
clearly only thinking 1 way
you're not a genious
you're not a man
you're no father
you're canned
