Lyrics

No one knows what it's like to be the bad man
To be the sad man, behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like to be hated
To be fated to telling only lies
But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance that's never free
No one knows what it's like to feel these feelings
Like I do, and I blame you
No one bites back as hard on their anger
None of my pain and woe can show through
But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance that's never free
When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
'Fore I laugh and act like a fool
And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
But if I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat
No one knows what it's like to be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
