"T-Bone" Burnett
My Song
[Verse 1]
Everything I do
Surrounds these pieces of my life
That often change
Or maybe I've changed

[Verse 2]
Sometimes seeming happy
Can be self-destructive
Even when you're sane
Or only insane
But don't bother waking me today

[Chorus]
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung

[Post-Chorus]
But this is my song
It is my song
[Verse 3]
Now I live everyday
Like there'll never be a last one
Till they're gone
And they're gone
I'm not too proud to beg for
Your attention and your friendship
And your time
So you can come and get it from now on

[Chorus]
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
To cut you like a
Word if only sung

[Post-Chorus]
This is my song
It's my song
[Bridge]
And it's you
It is you

[Chorus]
Here I am
I'm so young
I know I've been bitter
I've been jaded
I'm alone
Everyday, I bite my tongue
If you only knew
My mind was full of razors
I'm not sure I can take it
I've 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

[Post-Chorus]
But this is my song
