all I want is the world
and everything for me
you can rattle off your talk
all that matters is what I see

if you break me down
            break me down
selfish desire
            break me down
is all you'll blame
cause desperate times
call for desperate measures
and I am not ashamed
oh, it took me long time to come to this
and I have chosen my path
I am
            I am
I am me
            I am only for me

all my dreams are so closed
if I open open them to you
you can count them all as lies
you can believe me
or you can believe the truth

if you break me down
            break me down
selfish desire
            break me down
is all you'll blame
cause desperate times
call for desperate measures
and I am not ashamed
oh, it took me long time to come to this
and I have chosen my path
I am
            I am
I am me
            I am only for me

but I could let you in
put your feelings on the shelf
there's only room cause it helps myself
oh I could let you in
but it's to no avail
I only listen cause it helps myself
oh, it took me long time to come to this
and I have chosen my path
I am
            I am
I am me
            I am only for me

I took a cane from a blind man
well I tasted the fruit in the garden of Eden
when I walk out of here
know I'll stand clear
but the taste in my mouth still remains, still remains

oh, it took me long time to come to this
oh, it took me long time
I am
I am only for me

oh, it took me long time to come to this
oh, it took me long time
I am
I am only for me

oh, it took me long time to come to this
oh, it took me long time
