I wanted something for myself
In world that's been more like a prison cell
I wanted forgiveness
for so long
A heart that's hungry is too much to bear a heart that's lonely must remain there
Damned if I do
Ruined if I don't
Round my neck there is a rope
Reminding me I'm not a ghost at least not yet
I have a beating heart
I have a feeling soul
I have a right to feel
For once that I am not alone
I have a right to take
When all I've ever done is give
I have a right to a will to live
I want to live
I wanted something for myself
If that means that I'm going to hell
I don't need forgiveness
When I did nothing wrong
At least not yet
Not yet
