every day at school is hell
where you dream of being like someone else
a target drawing help instead of blood
where you shout hey
I believe in what I have to
believe in what I need to
that everything is ok
and you say
everything you need to
every time you want to
’til everything is ok hey hey
every day at work is hell
where you try to be a better sell
living in the space you stare into
where you shout hey
I’m doing what I have to
I’m doing what I need to
’til everything is ok
and you say
everything you want to
everything you need to
’til everything is ok hey hey
we all dream of being ourselves
the hand that always seems to reach for someone else
we never speak aloud in case we’re the only ones
that cry hey
even if I want to
even if I need to
I can never say
hey everything I want to
everything I need to
to make these things ok hey hey
