Lyrics
MENTAL SCARS
They’ve called you every cruel name from cynic to snob,
Their words and looks, like needles large and small,
Have left you with the feeling that you’ve got to be a slob
And your jokes just never raise no laughs at all…
When your smallest faults are magnified, distorted, advertised
And you cannot hope to do a thing that’s right,
When everyone’s against you, every action criticized,
And the only path left to you is to fight…
(So you fight...fight for your rights...)
Then your lips become the tighter and your answers short and rude
And each one in his own uncaring blindness
Thinks that you’re impossible, so you taste solitude,
When all they had to do was try some kindness…
Why don’t they understand their cruel jokes cut you through and through:
Though they may not believe it, you can feel;
And every time that seeing blind pull a cruel one on you,
Your mental scars take a little longer to heal…
(And sometimes, they just dont heal)
BRIDGE
Why don’t they understand their cruel jokes cut you through and through:
Though they may not believe it, you can feel;
And every time that seeing blind pull a cruel one on you,
Your mental scars take a little longer to heal…
(And sometimes, they just dont heal...)
