This is a cruel
and ruthless world.
This is our world.
This is everyone for themselves where bigger
dogs eat smaller dogs over lunch.
Where there's always someone younger,
cheaper, and better than you.
It's a game.
In order to survive,
you must play.
To succeed, you must cheat.
If you do, you do not have the
right to feel how it's done by.
If you don't, you'll spend the rest
of your life wondering why.
Why me?
Why me indeed?
I wanted everything that
my eyes could see
But you don't see the pitfalls
when you're blinded by greed
I wanted things I could never afford
But I got much more than I bargained for
If I hadn't gone too far,
if I didn't want too much
If I hadn't pushed too hard
Things could have been different for me
If I hadn't gone too far,
if I didn't want too much
If I had to push too hard, things,
colour it different for me
Sometimes our expect
ations are far too high
And we lead ourselves to believe that
love should be indestructible
When in fact love is the one thing
that can completely destroy us
We think that we deserve to get more
out than we're willing to put in
We demand honesty,
openness and loyalty
Which is more than we
can bear to live up to
So when love falls apart, we feel that we're the only
person in the world this has ever happened to.
Why me?
Why me indeed?
I took a chance and died in your arms
When you took me in and you
smothered me with your charms
I bit off more than I could possibly chew
And I'd eaten my fill and
was devoured by you
If I hadn't gone too far,
if I didn't want too much
If I hadn't pushed too hard
Things could have been different for me
If I had gone too far,
if I did want too much
If I had pushed too hard
Things could have been dif
ferent for me
We cannot bear to admit defeat
We cannot take the pain
We are prepared to take the risks
Bask in the glory of our own success
We are not prepared to wallow in the
depths of our inadequacies
So we look for someone else to blame
Why me indeed?
I took a chance and died in your arms
When you took me in and you
smothered me with your charms
I bit off more than I could possibly chew
And I eaten my fill, I was devoured by you
If I hadn't gone too far,
if I didn't want too much
If I hadn't pushed too hard
Things could have been different for me
If I hadn't gone too far,
if I didn't want too much
If I hadn't pushed too hard
Things could have been different for me
If I hadn't gone too far
If I didn't want too much
If I hadn't pushed too hard
Things could have been different for me
If I hadn't gone too far
If I didn't want too much
If I hadn't pushed too hard
Things should have been different for me
