When will I get over the idea
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
That everyone has to love me?
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
You know I don't love everyone myself
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E

Still this rings true, I'm nothing if not
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
Just a servant to an outside opinion
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
I can't tell you what you think, doesn't matter to me
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
Why can't I just be an island on the ocean
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
I need something from the outside for the inside of me
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
Somedays I feel I can take the world
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
And put it on my shoulders for all eternity
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
But even in this lack of gravity
G A7/C# Bb/D C/E
I still need someone to just to stand there with me
