H.O.U.S.E. - Why Me lyrics

Why me? Why me? 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 hard done by If you don't you'll spend the rest of your life wondering why Why me? Why me indeed... I ordered everything that my eyes could see But you don't see the pitfalls when you're blinded by greed I ordered 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 to 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 to much If I hadn't pushed too hard Things could have been different for me Sometimes our expectations are far too high And we lead ourselves to believe that 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 were willing to put in We demand honesty, openness and loyalty Which is more than we can bear live up to So when love falls apart we feel that we're the only person in the world This have 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 Why me indeed... I ordered everything that my eyes could see But you don't see the pitfalls when you're blinded by greed I ordered 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 to 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 to much If I hadn't pushed too hard Things could have been different for me We cannot bear to admit defeat We cannot take the pain We are prepared to take the risks And 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 When I'd eaten my fill, I was devoured by you Why me indeed... I ordered everything that my eyes could see But you don't see the pitfalls when you're blinded by greed I ordered 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 to much If I hadn't pushed too hard Things could have been different for me Things should have been different for me
