They laugh at me I’m all alone They question me In jagged tones
They try to tell me what’s true And what’s not true As if they knew As if they knew
They tell me how to feel They tell me what I’m worth They tell me how I’ve failed All in their own words
They tell me how to love And how to get along Passion’s all right As long as it’s not too strong
Here’s how you play the game Here’s how you play your part Here’s how you go along Here’s how to neglect your heart
Fixed life Like the stars Never moving Never far
