How dare I seek for validation
Longing for something more.
I only deserve my own damnation
Why do I need an open door.
Why would I ever need a toast
Who ever heard of me.
What do I even have to boast
What more could I really need.
They ask me "Why the cruel ambition?
Don't you have enough?
With your rags and pain and social division
What more do you want? Love?"
