|
Is this what you wanted? |
|
Nobody won |
|
And everything broken |
|
Before it even begun |
|
Is this what your dreams held |
|
When you first held me? |
|
Did somebody tell you |
|
What a little child needs? |
|
But somebody say a prayer for me |
|
Wish I'd do better than anyone here |
|
Wish I'd make something out of life |
|
Wish I'd make somebody proud |
|
Why can't |
|
I go nowAnd never look back? |
|
Do you suddenly need me |
|
To keep your life on track? |
|
You've done nothing, nothing |
|
Nothing worth anything right |
|
Holding me down in your shadow |
|
Keeping me away from the light |
|
And someone who'd say a prayer for me |
|
Someone who knows how to get out of here |
|
Someone who'd gladly step aside |
|
To let me have some kind of life |
|
Is this what you wanted |
|
Oh, mother of mine? |
|
Did you ever listen |
|
When your little baby cried? |
|
Somebody say a prayer for me |
|
Wish I'd do better than anyone here |
|
Wish I'd make something out of life |
|
Wish I'd make somebody proud |
|
Is this what you wanted |
|
Oh, mother of mine? |
|
Did you ever listen |
|
When your little baby cried? |
