[Verse 1]
Watching as the light fades in, everybody else is asleep
Nobody keeps you as well as these friends you keep
But how do you hold on to those who turn their backs when it's your turn to need?
You just give more than you got until everybody sees

[Pre-Chorus]
Now, I know you've never needed the pity of anyone
Not even your father for making you what you've become
But if you let these people take whatever you may bring
They'll take advantage while they'rе taking you for everything

[Instrumental Chorus]

[Verse 2]
With all thesе people you’re trying to impress
You’re still letting them pull you around just like a marionette
And I'm watching the way you do this, like you're never gonna learn
You're just giving these people everything for nothing in return

[Pre-Chorus]
Now, I know you've never needed the pity of anyone
Not even your father for making you what you've become
But if you let these people take whatever you may bring
They'll take advantage while they're taking you for everything
[Instrumental Chorus]
