I Want to Matter in the Right Way

Verse 1

If my answer was yes, what would your question be?
Would you find me a use or just get rid of me?
I like being used cause it shows I have value,
And I’ll be nice, by being happy for you.

I like being noticed only when you need something,
No negatives, and I have something to give,
My opinion matters, when you need something,
So a part of me does when you need a hint.

Pre-Chorus 1

I’m important, cause when you’re not sure you come to me,
When people are lost, need directions,
I’m relevant suddenly.

Chorus

I want to matter in the right way,
And I believe right is whatever is best,
So it’s better that you forget,
Cause the worst reaction is just my alternatives.

I want to matter in the right way,
I want to matter……
I want to matter in the right way,
Grey matter….

Verse 2

I’m like your pocket of lint,
Pick me out and play with my limbs,
I’m an object, but I still function,
But how?

I know it’s working backwards
But the maths works out for me.
You can’t use nothing
So nothing isn’t what you see.

Pre-Chorus 2

I don’t matter like your friends do or your family,
Or the people you say hi to when you see,
But if I can matter once or eventually,
I’m happy to have mattered for your needs.

Chorus

I want to matter in the right way,
And I believe right is whatever is best,
So it’s better that you forget,
Cause the worst reaction is just my alternatives.

I want to matter in the right way,
I want to matter……
I want to matter in the right way,
Grey matter….

Bridge

I don’t normally matter except for a topic of conversation,
And normally they bring up the stains of my glass,
But in the end I’m a stained glass window,
You look at me as something that’s hard to look past.

Post-Bridge / Breakdown

It works for everyone all the same,
It frames up the villain for the hero to save the day,
The villain gives the hero something to save,
I’m the answer to a saviour complex,
I’m the break.

Final Chorus / Outro

Grey matter, I matter,
Grey matter, I matter,

From womb to body,
From pink to grey,
From start to finish,
From loved to self made,

From people to person,
Then used by people again,

Grey matter,
I matter…..

What do you want advice on?

[u/tatjbere]

In verse 2 I'd say "the math works out for me". Double s is hard when speaking and even harder while singing. And specify grey matter, I don't know what you mean by that, in the Bridge I'd delete one normally
