| [00:01.76] |
When I was born they looked at and said |
| [00:06.21] |
What a good boy, what a smart boy, what a strong boy |
| [00:10.46] |
And when you were born they looked at you and said |
| [00:15.74] |
What a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl |
| [00:20.14] |
We've got these chains that hang around our necks |
| [00:25.18] |
People want to strangle us with them before we take our first breath |
| [00:30.32] |
Afraid of change, afraid of staying the same |
| [00:34.62] |
When temptation calls we just look away |
| [00:39.62] |
This name is the hairshirt I wear |
| [00:43.57] |
And this hairshirt is woven from your brown hair |
| [00:49.25] |
This song is the cross that I bear |
| [00:53.35] |
Bear it with me, bear with me, bear with me |
| [00:57.89] |
Be with me tonight |
| [01:02.09] |
I know that it isn't right |
| [01:06.45] |
But be with me tonight |
| [01:09.71] |
I go to school, I write exams |
| [01:13.71] |
If I pass, if I fail, if I drop out, does anyone give a damn? |
| [01:19.66] |
And if they do, they'll soon forget |
| [01:23.57] |
'Cause it won't take much for me to show my life ain't over yet |
| [01:28.86] |
I wake up scared, I wake up strange |
| [01:33.65] |
I wake up wondering if anything in my life |
| [01:37.32] |
Is ever gonna change |
| [01:39.56] |
I wake up scared, I wake up strange |
| [01:44.97] |
And everything around me stays the same |
| [01:50.08] |
It's the hairshirt I wear |
| [01:52.60] |
And this hairshirt is woven from is woven from your brown hair |
| [01:58.80] |
This song is the cross that I bear |
| [02:02.27] |
Bear it with me, bear with me, bear with me |
| [02:07.06] |
Be with me tonight |
| [02:11.28] |
I know that it isn't right |
| [02:20.84] |
But be with me tonight |
| [02:23.40] |
I couldn't tell you I was wrong |
| [02:28.07] |
Chickened out, grabbed a pen and paper, sat down and I wrote this song |
| [02:33.26] |
I couldn't tell you that you were right |
| [02:37.89] |
So instead I looked in the mirror, watched TV, laid awake all night |
| [02:43.15] |
We've got these chains that hang around our necks |
| [02:47.89] |
People want to strangle us with them before we take our first breath |
| [02:53.16] |
Afraid of change, afraid of staying the same |
| [02:57.35] |
When temptation calls... Yeah hey |
| [03:02.13] |
Oh this name is the hairshirt I wear |
| [03:06.30] |
And this hairshirt is woven from is woven from is woven from hair |
| [03:12.62] |
This song is the cross that I bear |
| [03:15.85] |
Bear it with me, bear with me, bear with me |
| [03:20.59] |
Be with me tonight |
| [03:23.12] |
When I was born they looked at me and said |
| [03:27.72] |
What a good boy, what a smart boy, what a strong boy |
| [03:32.09] |
And when you were born they looked at you and said |
| [03:37.50] |
What a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl yeah~ |
