I’ll try my best
To pass your test
I beat my chest
You don’t notice me
If your success
Then I’m a mess
You’ll beat the rest
You don’t even need me
When the noise drops
It’s just you and me
You’re so different
You’re so easy and free
I’ll do well
To ring your bell
Make your heart swell
We are running in the crowd
Yes I will
Pay the bill
That’s the drill
Let me run with your crowd
Small mercies
Are all I get
They’re good enough
Good enough for me
Scraps of you
Little pieces
You’re everywhere
And I don’t ask anything much of you
