"Every Day, Everyone"

I see the beams from miles away
Another life that's taking place
Events, resentments and mistakes
Mistook for commonplace
And I see it every day

And I'm waiting for the light to come
For someone to acknowledge what I've done
Doesn't everyone?
Doesn't everyone?
So confused what I'll become
Holding tight till I go numb
Isn't everyone?
Isn't everyone?

So close, and yet so far away
Another lesson on display
That I have more than just a say
I can choose it every day
I can choose it every day

And I'm waiting for the light to come
For someone to acknowledge what I've done
Doesn't everyone?
Doesn't everyone?
So confused what I'll become
Holding tight till I go numb
Isn't everyone?
Isn't everyone?

Oh, I've got every excuse in the book
But I can't take one look
In the mirror and expose the problem
And I've got every reason to be
A bitter tragedy
But doesn't everyone?
Doesn't everyone?
