FOR MYSELF Nov. 29/85 Karl Rigelhof

I'm a failure in your eyes
It comes as no surprise
When/why did/couldn't you/I realize
That we/you/I c/would('nt/not) compromise
And the promises (that) you made were all/only lies

But(/)now I'm gonna/(going to) prove you wrong
I'm gonna show (you) (that) I can be strong
I should have/'ve known it all along
That you would sing a different song
With (the) words that don't belong (together)

And now that things have changed
You/I have no-one/to left/take to/the blame
(Every)thing(s) seem(s) (new) and strange
Yet the/those feelings still remain
But I no longer (feel/have to) hide the shame
The way I look at life is not the same
Now (it's time)/(I (will)) (to make)/made a name
For myself

CHORUS:
I did if for/(all(/)by) myself/
(You (certainly) were no help)
Because I could not depend on you
There was no-one else
That I could turn to
If I can't do it for myself
How can I (expect to) do it for someone else
