All I wanted was to 
Live without the 
Middleman 
All you needed was a 

Chance to say, "I told you so" 
When you're cold and 
Battered all you want 
Is to know you matter 
To someone 

I had to throw away all 
The plans we made and 
Now these days 
With marks against my 
Shoulders I feel like 
I'm older than I am 

All I want right now 
Is to be my own child. 
Do you think it makes 
Me a better man just 
Mo know I can be 
Alone a while? 

I had to throw away 
All the plans we made 
And now these days 
With marks against my shoulders I feel like 
I'm older than I am
