[Verse 1:]

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


[Chorus:]

You should know much better, by now

From life, there's no easy way out


[Verse 2:]

I never look back longingly

It's not natural to long for range

Or be embarrassed by naivety

And though the years have softened things

I am still the heavy cross I bare

I am still the crown of thorns I wear


[Chorus:]

You should know much better, by now

From life, there's no easy way out


[Interlude:]

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


[Outro:]

You should know much better, by now (Back in safe, mundane days)

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

You should know much better, by now (I used to be a song, da, da, day)

(Back in safe, mundane days)

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