Anything to Anyone

I always wanted to see everyone listening to me [LINK TO SONG]

Thought I wanted to feel all of their eyes on me, riveted

"You should go west, young man"

Or so they'd say

"Go knock 'em dead"

Thought it'd be the beginning

But it could have easily been the end

I just wanted to see everyone listening to me

Tricksters, slavers, and gunslingers

Big Bad Wolf around every turn

Night light succubus eyes and painted lies grinding the nerves

Day-glo vampires out on the street

All the books say don't invite 'em in

But they own the whole business

Craving for new blood and pawing at skin

Thought I wanted to feel all of their eyes on me, yuck

Chased by life

Faced my knife

I used to think I should be everything to everyone

Now I just want to believe someone is listening to me

Wasted prime

Changed my mind

I used to think I could be everything to anyone

Now all I want is to see someone is listening to me

Now I just want to believe someone's listening

Are you listening?

Do you see?

Are you listening?

Anyone?

Are you listening to me?

I always wanted to see everyone listening to me

I used to think I should be everything to everyone

Thought I wanted to feel all of their eyes on me, riveted

Now I just want to believe someone is listening to me

Do you think I could be anything to anyone?
