Yeah I've heard that before but not someone as close as you.
I've tried to stay clear of the hate that surrounds us.
It hurts my ears. And I can't say you have no right to feel that way, all burned up inside. But I can try to change your mind. Listen to me or should I say goodbye???
Fear and resentment.
And you should see the face you wear.
I wouldn't be here if you didn't care. You're the same as the people around us.
I feel your pain.
And I can't say you have no right to feel that way, all burned up inside.
But I can help you to find the things you need, the ties that bind.
Every time I hear that sound of that little sigh that brings me down inside,
I cry 'cause I don't know why I can't make you happy.
Your self's a prisoner of life's injustice.
All that baggage is slowing you down.
And I've heard that word before but not from someone as close as you.
I tried to stay clear of the hate that surrounds us, it hurts my ears.
