Lyrics
Read Me My Rights
So I failed you and I failed me
Add one for good luck to the pot and make it three
I found love and it found me; but somehow it?s not enough to breathe
Who?s the keeper; what should I be
I can?t see myself, but I agree
Time is running; and I wanna know
Can somebody tell me?
Read me my rights. Tell me the rules
Save me from myself; the solitary school
This life; how should it look
This book pulls me in
Then rips me out
Just read me my rights. Read me my rights.
So here I am, just me with me
And I ask myself, ?What am I supposed to be??
Sometimes I think I know what will bring me happiness and make me grow
Who?s the keeper; what should I be
I can?t see myself, but I agree
Time is running; and I wanna know
Can somebody tell me?
I don?t like somebody telling me what to do
But it could be much easier if I had a clue
I?m not asking for some magic, mystic resurrection
All I?m looking for is direction
Read me my rights. Tell me the rules
Save me from myself; the solitary school
This life; how should it look
This book it pulls me in
Then rips me out
Just read me my rights. Read me my rights.
