These are the days I should weigh
Now are the days I should measure
Against the bad look at the good
Inside your eyes I've found a treasure

Eat like I'm hungry
Dance like nobody's watching
Love like I've never been hurt
For these are the words I am supposed to live by

Your vanity doesn't matter to me
Your fancy cars,
Your fancy homes
Your fancy lives
What ever happened to all those regular lives?

Are you really happy?
Or is it an illusion that you have created for yourselves?
To cover up all the things you wanted and never achieved

I've been stripped of everything,
Torn from the inside out
You may have taken me for granted
Maybe you thought I was weak
But you can't take my freedom
Or my will to speak.
