Once there was a man who decided he knew everything
Once there was a book that he threw in my face
Once there was an angry mob that marched
Up and down the street
Don`t ya know they all called my name
What do they want from me?
CHORUS
What do they want from me?
What do they want from me?
What do they want from a poor boy who
Can`t believe
They want to fill the void
They want to fill the empty spaces
But I won`t let them consume me
With the rest of the lifeless faces
Once there was a little girl
who thought that she was a queen
And she thought the world was a playground
filled with sand
So with all her friends she created a fantasy
They all come to me with their demands
What do they want from me?
CHORUS
Every little thing is a piece of a larger thing
Ever little fish is a tyrant of the sea
Every little atom is a master of his family
Every single piece calls my name
What do they want from me?
CHORUS
