Verse 1:
We the people fight for our existence
We don't claim to be perfect but we're free
We dream our dreams alone with no resistance
Fading like the stars we wish to be
Pre-chorus 1:
Y'know I didn't mean what I just said
But my God woke up on the wrong side of His bed
And it just don't matter now
Chorus 1:
'Cause little by little, we gave you everything
you ever dreamed of
And little by little, the wheels of your life
have slowly fallen off
Little by little, you have to live it all in all your life
And all the time, I just ask myself why are you really here?
Verse 2:
True perfection has to be imperfect
I know that that sounds foolish but it's true
The day has come and now you'll have to accept
The life inside your head we give to you
Pre-chorus 2: [Same as Pre-chorus 1]
Chorus 2: [Same as Chorus 1]
