All I want is a mirror So I can see this so called brighter day I'm watching all the world crawl back again Watching how it blows itself away That's all I want That's all I want That's all I want That's all I want All I want is destruction Want to see it crumble beneath my toes Smell the way my sore eyes burn away That's all I can have today That's all I want That's all I want That's all I want That's all I want All you want is to be me So you can screw me up and don't give a damn ('Cause I'm a) crazy Little daisy to vile to breathe I'm everything you want today That's all I want That's all I want That's all I want That's all I want
