Lyrics

Look inside for the elusive goldmine Broken glass and a little cheap wine Is all that I can find And bundles of contradictions My heart full of loose connections Hands across my eyes I cannot disguise I'm everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter It's always the same old question Who am I and whose invention? This armour's full of dust There's so much of us in each other If I hate you you're my best reminder Of all I wish I was I hate you just because I'm everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter Who do you think that I am? It don't matter long as we can understand I am hurting someone I am hurting someone just like, just like I am hurting someone I am hurting someone just like, just like you Insulting the wounds of others My sisters, my brothers My vision's way too good I carry the inward aching Like you, I too am naked I don't look that good But this is flesh and blood I'm everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter Look at all the blood we've spilt I can't deal with all this fundamental guilt I am hurting someone I am hurting someone just like, just like I am hurting someone I am hurting someone just like, just like you I am. I am. I am everyman's daughter I am. I am. I am everyman's daughter I am. I am. I am everyman's daughter I am. I am. I am everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter Everyman's daughter
