| And I said no to all the men I’ve come across
|
| Through the years I’ve been living strong and today
|
| I’m not afraid of love a different shade
|
| So much that light could never hope to travel through
|
| Yeah and I said no but all the things around my feet
|
| They point the other way and I’m afraid I could be wrong
|
| Put up walls around where you stay
|
| Different kinds for different days
|
| In this town I’m trying to live
|
| The other side is easier still
|
| Yeah and I said no but in my heart I’ve always been
|
| A little in between the old and straight line family ways
|
| Not long ago not long ago I do recall the uphill battle to today
|
| Yeah when they said go and in their faces I could see
|
| And all I thought of was suicide I’m nothing of a man
|
| Put up walls around where you stay
|
| Different kinds for different days
|
| In this town I’m trying to live
|
| The other side is easier still
|
| You’re still afraid of me
|
| Yeah and I said no to all the men I’ve come across
|
| Through the years I’ve been living strong and today
|
| Salt water falls and falls and falls
|
| And I’ve got scars to show I’m crying all the time
|
| You’re still afraid of me |
