There's nothing more I can say to please you
It takes a mountain of pain to appease you
You, a one-time lover
Me, a defeated other
We've hit the wall for the last time, this time
Life is gonna give you what you're asking for
Life is gonna show you what you need
I don't know why it took so long to realize
It isn't me
There's nothing more I can do to show you
I'd need a lifetime or two to know you
You, the raison d'être
Me, the great etcetera
We've hit the wall for the last time, this time
Life is gonna give you what you're asking for
Life is gonna show you what you need
I don't know why it took so long to realize
It isn't me
You are losing your hold on me
I'm leaving to fly
Can it be we'll never know why?
I'm losing this fight
It's gonna be alright
There are no more games I can play to thrill you
'Cause I know the price that I pay to fill you
You, the great provider
Me, the caged outsider
I've got the key and it's not you this time
Life is gonna give you what you're asking for
Life is gonna show you what you need
I don't know why it took so long to realize
It isn't me
