a personal tug of war.

Song Description

We all ache to feel special.

Lyrics

Special I Guess

I live from my heart, you conduct from your head
I say what I mean, you say what is said
I flow with the river, you build up a dam
You make people like you, I am who I am

Well, I crave the quiet, you?d rather be loud
I?m reading a book, you?re playin? the crowd
You love to be loved ?n you?ll do what it takes
but to me that seems silly, it feels kinda fake

chorus:
we reap what we sow in this life
do what we do to survive
with everyone thinkin? they?re right
we throw our own party, believe our own press
draw our conclusions ?n make our own mess
everyone wants to feel special I guess
everyone just wants to feel special

I hate bein? busy, you cram it all in
I like understanding, you go for the spin
Well, you want attention, but I need to feel sane
you argue to argue, I hate to complain

chorus:
we reap what we sow in this life
do what we do to survive
with everyone thinkin? they?re right
we throw our own party, pass our own test
dream up our dream ?n hope for the best
?cause everyone wants to feel special I guess
everyone just wants to feel special
