Liz Phair - Slave lyrics

[Verse 1] I can't remember the last time that I felt good for more than a week I mean really good, for more than a month 'Cause I'm chasing a dream, and sometimes a dream doesn't set you free Sometimes a dream is what makes you a slave [Pre-Chorus] Makes you want to feel, makes you want to cry Makes you want to tear the stars from the sky And you're halfway there, but you're halfway down And you just can't get your a** out of town And you can't back up, 'cause you're against the wall And it's the same goddamn thing I told you [Chorus] (Baby, it's alright) Sometimes a dream is what makes you a slave (Baby, it's alright) Sometimes a dream is what makes you a slave [Verse 2] And I think that's what's happened to me, 'cause I'm walking almost everyday blind And I'm searching through my past in a way that isn't healthy I'm hoping to find a good list of reasons to know that I'm special To know that I'm different, to know that I'm better [Pre-Chorus] Makes you want to feel, makes you want to cry Makes you want to tear the stars from the sky And you're halfway there, but you're halfway down And you just can't get your a** out of town And you can't back up, 'cause you're against the wall And it's the same goddamn thing I told you [Chorus] (Baby, it's alright) Sometimes a dream is what makes you a slave (Baby, it's alright) Sometimes a dream is what makes you a slave [Bridge] Look around; do you see anyone for themselves, like you see yourself? So why do you still feel so all alone? [Outro] Bubblegum, bubblegum in a dish Bubblegum, bubblegum in a dish, how many pieces do you wish? Bubblegum, bubblegum in a dish, how many pieces do you wish? My mother told me to pick the very best one, and you are it
