When I was a little boy I didn't know what's right or wrong I had to change my way of life But I just couldn't win the fight I'd let myself float off in time and hide
Another day another night I lived off dreams I thought was right But I couldn't stand being treated like I was the only without rights Stood there screamin at your vice and cried
The way you loved me Is not always what we call love Waiting now Beautiful pain (4x) Beautiful
