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 dayYou should know much better, by now From life, there's no easy way outI never look back longingly It's not natural to long for range Or be embarrassed by naivete And though the years have softened me I am still the heavy cross I bare I am still the crown of thorns I wearYou should know much better, by now From life, there's no easy way outIt is a privilege that you must takeThere's no escape, my love There's no escapeThere's no escape, my love There's no escapeYou should know much better Back in safe, mundane days By nowFrom life, there's no easy way out Back in safe, mundane daysI used to be a song, da, da, day You should know much better Back in safe, mundane days By nowFrom life, there's no easy way out Back in safe, mundane days
