Albatross

Don't let this be my legacy
An entire life of self-loathing
An entire life of questioning me
As this has been my history
And every misstep I have made
Will live two million times a day

You should know much better, by now
From life, there's no easy way out

I never look back longingly
It's not natural to long for range
Or be embarrassed by naivete
And though the years have softened me
I am still the heavy cross I bare
I am still the crown of thorns I wear

You should know much better, by now
From life, there's no easy way out

It is a privilege that you must take

There's no escape, my love
There's no escape

There's no escape, my love
There's no escape

You should know much better
Back in safe, mundane days
By now

From life, there's no easy way out
Back in safe, mundane days

I used to be a song, da, da, day
You should know much better
Back in safe, mundane days
By now

From life, there's no easy way out
Back in safe, mundane days
