Everyone projecting

All their dreams on me

A million life plans

Of what they want me to be

Saying give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Piece by piece

I'm slipping away

Hey

Be kind

Be patient

Be hard to please

It seems contradicting

But do it honestly

Just give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Until you disintegrate

Put your hands up

If you've lied awake at three AM

Promising yourself

All the things

That you think

That you'll

Never do again

Put your hands up

If you have a

Dream of running away

Somewhere you can

Get a little wild

For a night

And the next day

No one remembers your name

Everyone projecting

All their dreams on me

A million life plans

Of what they want me to be

Saying give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Piece by piece

I'm slipping away

Hey

Be kind

Be patient

Be hard to please

It seems contradicting

But do it honestly

Just give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Until you disintegrate

Of all the hypocrites

With slivers in their eyes

I'll scream that

I'm sick of it

I can't see the beams

In mine

Obscene expectations

Is the most toxic

Form of pride

So why should I

Deserve to do more

With my life

Everyone projecting

All their dreams on me

A million life plans

Of what they want me to be

Saying give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Piece by piece

I'm slipping away

Hey

Be kind

Be patient

Be hard to please

It seems contradicting

But do it honestly

Just give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Give a little

Until you disintegrate

Give a little

More to me

Give a little

More to me
