Ron Thal

I dont want money or a thing
For what I was and what I am and what Ill ever be
I dont need to be overground
I dont need to give away my life or make a sound
All I ever wanted was the thing I couldnt find
Oh I tried to get away - run away, far away
Something kept me in my place - so I stayed and remained
I dont wanna make a judgment call
Take a stand or make demands or try to please you all
All I wanted was the truth and that I couldnt find
Oh I tried to get away - run away, far away
But my shadow followed me - every place, kept my pace
Well I dont belong anyway
Well I missed my call - what a shame
I dont want much of anything
Everything I got I earned through pain and suffering
I dont want you numberin my days
I dont want you trying to immortalize my name
All I ever wanted was a little peace of mind
In all eyes ugliness was my face - a disgrace
Recognized lowly mess in my place - what a waste
Well I dont belong anyway
Well I missed my call - what a shame
And what I have you cant touch or see
All I have I got from God and thats all I need
All I ever really wanted was to stay inside
Well I tried to believe I was freed - in the lead
Yeah, I thought I could succeed - but its not my need
Something there was in my way so I stayed - stood in place
Where forever Ill remain - it was not my way
Not my way
Not my way
Oh I tried to get away - run away, far away
All I wanted was a feeling like Im warm inside
