My Song Lyrics

everything I do surrounds these pieces
of my life that often change
or maybe I've changed
sometimes seeming happy
can be self-destructive
even when you're sane
you're only insane

but don't bother waking me today

here I am, I'm so young
I know I've been bitter, I've been
jaded, I'm alone
every day I bite my tongue
if you only knew my mind
was full of razors
to cut you like a word if only sung
but this is My Song, it is My Song

I live every day like there'll never be a
last one till they're gone
and they're gone
but I'm too proud to beg for your
attention and your friendship
and your time
so you can come and get it from now on

here I am, I'm so young
I know I've been bitter, I've been
jaded, I'm alone
every day I bite my tongue
if you only knew my mind
was full of razors
to cut you like a word if only sung
but this is My Song, it is My Song

here I am, I'm so young
I know I've been bitter, I've been
jaded, I'm alone
every day I bite my tongue
if you only knew my mind
was full of razors
I'm not sure I can take it
I have nothing strong to hold to
I'm way too old to hate you
my mind is full of razors
to cut you like a word if only sung
but this is My Song

Brilliant.

I think this song means that she doesn't want to show her hatred for this person and she's kind of fake-liking them.

My favorite lines: "I'm not sure I can take it/I've nothing strong to hold to/ I'm way too old to hate you" I love how she sings it and her voice kind of screams. It's so... I don't know. Perfect. Great. Amazing. I stop whatever I'm doing and just pause for a second to hear her sing those lines.

I LOVE THE LYRICSSSS. :D

'Sometimes being happy Can be self-destructive I live everyday Like there’ll never be a last one Till they’re gone And they’re gone'

I love these lines. So honest. And I agree with celatee, I love the way she sings the 'I'm not sure I can take it', etc. lines. Man, that woman has got a voice on her. She's pretty much mind-blowing, yep. :]
