Deserving Song

I don't deserve anything I get

Things just come easy to me

Like the sun in the morning on a blanket of clouds

And other things that you don't see

And I don't deserve my family

I am the youngest and they all love me

And I don't feel pain

But I don't feel free sometimes

And I will shatter because I don't bounce

Feel weight on my shoulder

From something that weighs just an ounce

Like life since the moment that we met

But I don't deserve anything I get

I don't deserve anything I get

I am self-centered and weak

And I don't feel your pain or your emptiness

Or feel sorry for you when you bleed

And I don't deserve my body

It may not be perfect but it works for me

And I can walk and I can see the sky

But I will shatter because I don't bend

And all that I know is that you are my friend

And I love you more than any record ever set

But I don't deserve anything I get

Well I don't deserve anything I get

People just take care of me

And I'll never be sorry for the way I see you

Or just sorry for the way you see me

Because I will shatter and I will break

And I'm usually the first one to make a mistake

Oh but God only gives us as much as we can take I bet

But I don't deserve anything I get

And I don't deserve anything I get
