lyrics
Since I left the cradle
things have never been too easy
I'm telling you now that I don't need no sympathy
Regard you a safe guard from harm
A shelter from this cold
And now you're in my face
with this misunderstanding
As a result I'm heading for a crash landing
Bruised and confused I shed my own skin
To keep this secret within
I don't want you to see
Anyone else but me
Since you left I will hold my own
Way up high it's an empty throne
Think you'll find it's obvious
That no one likes you clearly
A price on your head that may well even cost you dearly
Regard you a safe guard from harm
A shelter from this cold
Now you're in my face
with this misunderstanding
As a result I'm heading for a crash landing
Bruised and confused in your own skin
Trying to hide this within
And I'll hold onto what we had
I'll hold onto this time
You try to tell me everything that I should be
It's over, it's already over...
things have never been too easy
I'm telling you now that I don't need no sympathy
Regard you a safe guard from harm
A shelter from this cold
And now you're in my face
with this misunderstanding
As a result I'm heading for a crash landing
Bruised and confused I shed my own skin
To keep this secret within
I don't want you to see
Anyone else but me
Since you left I will hold my own
Way up high it's an empty throne
Think you'll find it's obvious
That no one likes you clearly
A price on your head that may well even cost you dearly
Regard you a safe guard from harm
A shelter from this cold
Now you're in my face
with this misunderstanding
As a result I'm heading for a crash landing
Bruised and confused in your own skin
Trying to hide this within
And I'll hold onto what we had
I'll hold onto this time
You try to tell me everything that I should be
It's over, it's already over...
