left me a place in your hometown
all i need is some space
breathe me in and you breathe me out
i abandoned my fears and forgot
what it would bring about
i still don't understand
why you didn't choose to go abroad
the american dream wouldn't fill your greed
you say there has to be a way out of all this
who do you think i am?
i needn't you deliver me a lecture
either on things i already knew
or something greatly beyond my comprehension
who do you think you are?
