Long enough to be alive
How could you expect me
To feel what you do?
I feel like I'm fading
Farther away from you
How could you expect me
To remember all the good things that you've done
Chorus:
You are the potter - I'm the clay
You are the only way
I am your child today
I am your servant - teach me how to pray
How many things I've spoken
How many things I've done
But all the things that've come my way
Have brought me to be broken
Who said life is fair?
But why was I chosen
To be the thorn on all the roses
I don't deserve this kind of life
Bridge:
Life is crime - to fight is sin
Life is dust - you never win
Ya, I've been thinking long enough Long enough to be alive How could you expect me To feel what you do? I feel like I'm fading Farther away from you How could you expect me To remember all the good things that you've done Chorus: You are the potter - I'm the clay You are the only way I am your child today I am your servant - teach me how to pray How many things I've spoken How many things I've done But all the things that've come my way Have brought me to be broken Who said life is fair? But why was I chosen To be the thorn on all the roses I don't deserve this kind of life Bridge: Life is crime - to fight is sin Life is dust - you never win Explain Request ×
