I'll never wed
That common expectation never met

And mother said
If only I had chosen someone else

In secret smiled
Oh, dearie, it is never quite that dire

You see, I lied
It's you alone, the reason that I hide

Keep the devil on my shoulder
And your wisdom in my ear
Counteract the ignorance
And poisonous refrains

Bend an ear to every rebel
Every sacrilegious mirror
Tally all the benefits
Of every "betters" gain

Did Earth feel slighted
For Her credit due
She turns our lives so carefully
For praises sparse and few

Every body's
Brilliant
Because before
We weren't
And now
We're everything
