Give A Little Till Nothing’s Left 

Everyone projects their dream on you  

Telling you what they want you to be 

A thousand directions 

You’re pulled in 

They tell you just give a little, just give a little 

Slowly but surely if you listen to a thousand contradictory plans 

And the voices telling you to always give a little, give a little 

Soon you’re disintegrating as you’ve got nothing left to give 

Be kind, be patient, be hard to please 

Which is it 

That’s a contradiction one of many 

Piece by piece you’re slipping away 

Raise your hand if you’ve ever just wanted to run away from it all 

Somewhere you can get away from all the expectations 

And just be yourself 

It’s so hard when all the contradictions come in hard and fast 

Even when a thousand voices tell you different  

And pull you in a thousand directions 

The only option is to be yourself 

And remember to keep enough of yourself to sustain yourself 

Don’t spread yourself too thin 

Lest you disintegrate 

Into a thousand pieces 

And forget who you are
