Can you give me a cogent reason why I gravitate to things that no one likes?
And do I really want to be this way?
No.
But I itch and I can't scratch
My back is aching for the lash
I'm a glutton for the punishment but starving for what I can never get
For the first time in my life I just want to do whats right with a childlike wonder
That wont put me under you.
For the first time in my life I just want to do what feels right with a childlike wonder
That wont put me under you.
And sometimes I don't want to be anything, anyone like me
And though the world must share my hate, why is it so hard to relate?
Well lately now I find I want to be innocent, experienced at the same time
And time is precious agony
It's never ending yet fleeting from me
You don't know whats in my heart but I can show you
You don't know whats in my heart
