I really don't feel too strong And everything seems to hurt me And nothing in life is fair And no one really seems to care It was me who selflessly turned the page Who gave them the names and collected the blames and rattled the monkeys cage It was me It was me who knocked on his secret door Revealing his face and his long dying grace to show them that there was more It was me Would you come stand beside me whether I'm right or wrong? I really don't feel too strong And everything seems to hurt me And nothing in life is fair And no one really seems to care I only opened up their eyes to let them see to make up their own minds based on the pieces that they'd find Now they look for someone to blame, to shoulder guilt, to shoulder shame While you are hiding in the crowd I hope it really makes you proud It was me who foolishly lingered on And with all my might, continued the fight long after all hope was gone It was me
