King's X We Were Born to Be Loved lyrics

I could shout from a rooftop how I really feel
Do you really want to know, do you really care?
I could silently scream so you never hear

Somebody said, "You must rise above it all"
We were born to be loved

How the screaming changes when the meaning hits your ears
Do you really, do you really want to know?
Can you count the reasons why we have so many fears?

Somebody said, "You must rise above it all"
We were born to be loved
Somebody said, "Read the writing on the wall"
We were born to be loved

A big heart, lonely eyes, a child plays with toys soon to realize
To stop playin', to bottle up inside, 'cause all he wanted was love
He remembers how well nobody cared, he was alone with everybody there
He took a chance, he got outta there but all he wanted was love


The mouth of the fool, a whip on his back, he's got the scars to prove it
A broken heart, a matter of fact but he knows how to use it

Happy endings are not just for TV
Broken hearts don't lose one piece of the puzzle
And The Beatles said, all you need is love

I could point the finger but there's too much inside here

Somebody said, "You must rise above it all"
We were born to be loved
Somebody said, "Read the writing on the wall"
We were born to be loved

Take it a break, y'all
