Well my children
I give you
some of me
but not enough of me
not enough of myself
And my children
I give you
some loving
but not enough loving
not enough of myself
I got a quilt of silt
I keep one assembling again
I got a fistful of ills
that resemble my thrills
Ain't it a wonder I got no friends
Sent me a pocket Valentine
Tell me how I feel
and drank some wine
Don't worry bout me baby
I'm doing fine
I don't need no sympathy
Well my children
I give you
some of me
but not enough of me
not enough of myself
And my children
I give you
some loving
but not enough loving
not enough of myself
Self loathing
and denying
Gave up
on all my crying
So ow
down inside
Nothing left but
save for the crying
Sorry, what a sorry
Sorry, sorry boy...
