When it comes down to it
I know
That when it comes down to it
I won't
Even listen to myself.
I won't
Even believe the distant memories
From back
When I didn't understand.
From back
When I thought I was inferior to the world;
When I
Owed my ev'ry ounce of self.
When I
Owed the right to fufillment.
Since then
My universe has reformed.
Since then
My universe isn't empty.
That when it comes down to it
I won't
Even listen to myself.
I won't
Even believe the distant memories
From back
When I didn't understand.
From back
When I thought I was inferior to the world;
When I
Owed my ev'ry ounce of self.
When I
Owed the right to fufillment.
Since then
My universe has reformed.
Since then
My universe isn't empty.
