It's not the change I'm looking for This is not the change I wanted

the mother 04:10
Witnessing the conflict I try to avoid it Not worth the struggle Shame if you lose Guilt if you win My heart is that door With a hole from the fist Too quick to say goodbye Last week I waited so damn long For you to decide what to buy Always on your time It was such a battle it didn't have to be reason was already gone Nothing made sense Nothing then and nothing now I wish you could learn from me The way I learned from you That isn't quite right Witness to the constant fight It's too late now We lost our chance Everything could have become better But that was hoping for the impossible I will try to remember the good But it's really hard to find Why is it hard to find Why is it hard to find
3.
the wild 04:34
Where do I begin because I don't know where it began If You love us all and we love You, too Then why can't we all be a leader for You The chosen still made mistakes But could spread Your Good News I know am full of mistakes and regrets And I don't claim any as acceptable This is my line But now you have precognition And your own safe space An outcast people Not a disease or infection Looking to overrun your sacred place I must have incorrect perspective My wrongful interpretation Of life experience Leave them in pain To start a journey anew Leave them in pain They'll start a journey anew With another hero This is my line Deserted and left in pain Deserted Into the wild

the data 06:00
I'm sick of excluding myself Nothing's ordinary Keep asking me why Accept it or reject it I feel like I can die Die Simple request Simply denied I gave you half my life You can't give me 90 days FML or FMLA Cancer or poverty Hero or outcast Saint or sinner Martyr or heathen Alive or dead When I share my journey Always the same, you poor soul Don't listen, to me, offer the same thing I heard 14 (2:07) years ago I'll just die a little more Because I can't make any more Another rejection, a knife in the heart I imagine myself in many different shoes But the present shoe is on too fucking tight Release me From this abyss I'm so sick Of this invisible illness Release me or put me down Because i never find the words to allow me to escape Because i never grow when I'm constantly getting beat down I'm injured I'm drained I'm weak I've tried every option I can think I need You to take over now because I'm done I'm leaving half the wage behind But hopefully sanity's still mine And if I'm wrong I'm dead anyway because The data doesn't lie!
