It's like we're a bunch of lonely people Testing the limit to see how much pain we can bear Honestly I don't know how I got so far I did this to me I did this to me There is no one else to blame I did it myself I did this to me I did this to me I did this to me I did this to me I wish it was your fault I wish it was your fault But how could it be, oh But how could it be, oh I did this to me Sometimes I can't move at all Unless I'm certain that I'm following the right path The right path In my dreams, you praised me and clapped Then mommy said, "It's alright, there's always next time You did your best" It's like we're a bunch of lonely people Testing the limit to see how much pain we can bear Not too much and not too little So the world feels much more familiar And the only reason I could carry on is thanks to My imaginary children, great-great grandchildren Singing in front of my hundred birthday cake Saying they are glad Saying they are proud Of what I've accomplished in my time It's all but a dream It's all but a dream It's all but a dream I did this to me I did this to me I did this to me I did this to me There is no more mommy There is no more daddy I'll take it head on Yeah I'll take it head on 'Cause I did this to me
