Maybe it sounds mean
But I really don't think so
You asked for the truth
And I told you
Through their own words
They will be exposed

— Sinéad O'Connor I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got (1990)

I'm walking through the desert
And I am not frightened although it's hot
I have all that I requested
And I do not want what I haven't got

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got (1990)

I'll remember it
And Dublin in a rainstorm
And sitting in the long grass in summer
Keepin' warm
I'll remember it
Every restless night
We were so young then
We thought that everything
We could possibly do was right.

The Lion and the Cobra (1987)

Oh, I love you
God, I love you
I'd kill a dragon for you
I'll die
But I will rise
And I will return
The Phoenix from the flame
I have learned
I will rise
And you'll see me return
Being what I am
There is no other Troy
For me to burn.

The Lion and the Cobra (1987)

And I never meant to hurt you
I swear I didn't mean
Those things I said
I never meant to do that to you
Next time I'll keep my hands to myself instead.
