Red Delta Orchestra - Anything to Anyone Lyrics

I always wanted to see everyone listening to me
Thought I wanted to feel all of their eyes on me, riveted
"You should go west, young man"
Or so they'd say
"Go knock 'em dead"
Thought it'd be the beginning
But it could have easily been the end

I just wanted to see everyone listening to me

Tricksters, slavers, and gunslingers
Big Bad Wolf around every turn
Night light succubus eyes and painted lies grinding the nerves
Day-glo vampires out on the street
All the books say don't invite 'em in
But they own the whole business
Craving for new blood and pawing at skin

Thought I wanted to feel all of their eyes on me, yuck

Chased by life
Faced my knife
I used to think I should be everything to everyone
Now I just want to believe someone is listening to me

Wasted prime
Changed my mind
I used to think I could be everything to anyone
Now all I want is to see someone is listening to me
Now I just want to believe someone's listening
Are you listening?
Do you see?
Are you listening?
Anyone?
Are you listening to me?

I always wanted to see everyone listening to me
I used to think I should be everything to everyone
Thought I wanted to feel all of their eyes on me, riveted
Now I just want to believe someone is listening to me
Do you think I could be anything to anyone?
