Assemblage 23 - You Haven't Earned It

Assemblage 23

You Haven't Earned It

You crave attention
As if it's due to you
You want permission
To behave as badly as you do

You want respect, but
You don't act respectable
You want fame to fill the void
Where you once had a soul

But you haven't earned it
You haven't walked long enough in these shoes
You don't deserve it
You have'¹t nearly paid your dues

It's so pathetic
This image you portray
Shatters like crystal
And slowly fades away

You want the world's eyes
You need the accolades
You want the money
And all the empty praise

But you haven't earned it
You haven't walked long enough in these shoes
You don't deserve it
You have'¹t nearly paid your dues

When it's all over
What will you have left?
You'll still be incomplete
Forgotten and depressed

You want acceptance
It's all you wanted all along
You want forgiveness
From those who you have wronged

But you haven't earned it
You haven't walked long enough in these shoes
You don't deserve it
You have'¹t nearly paid your dues

Mirror lyrics:

You have'¹t nearly paid your dues
You don't deserve it
You haven't walked long enough in these shoes
But you haven't earned it

From those who you have wronged
You want forgiveness
It's all you wanted all along
You want acceptance

Forgotten and depressed
You'll still be incomplete
What will you have left?
When it's all over

You have'¹t nearly paid your dues
You don't deserve it
You haven't walked long enough in these shoes
But you haven't earned it

And all the empty praise
You want the money
You need the accolades
You want the world's eyes

And slowly fades away
Shatters like crystal
This image you portray
It's so pathetic

You have'¹t nearly paid your dues
You don't deserve it
You haven't walked long enough in these shoes
But you haven't earned it

Where you once had a soul
You want fame to fill the void
You don't act respectable
You want respect, but

To behave as badly as you do
You want permission
As if it's due to you
You crave attention
