We the people fight for our existence
We don't claim to be perfect
But 
we're free
We dream our dreams alone
With no resistance
Fading like the 
stars we wish to be

* You know I didn't mean
What I just said
But 
my God woke up
On the wrong side of his bed
And it just don't matter 
now

** Cos little by little
We gave you everything
You ever dreamed 
of
Little by little
The wheels of your life
Have slowly fallen 
off
Little by little
You have to give it all in all your life
And all 
the time I just ask myself why
You're really here
(Hey)

True 
perfection has to be imperfect
I know that that sounds foolish but it's 
true
The day has come
And now you'll have to accept
The life inside 
your head we give to you

[Repeat * , **]

Little by little
We 
gave you everything
You ever dreamed of
Little by little
The wheels of 
your life
Have slowly fallen off
Little by little
You had to give it 
all in all your life
And all the time I just ask myself why
You're really 
here
Why am I really here?
Why am I really here?
