There are still shards in the road, shackled wooden windows The hero in the cell, he doesn't look too well A cardio love-send, a face down in the dirt, makeshift, I don't I don't obey, I don't follow you, or anyone else for that matter
You don't understand, 'cause you are not a strong man I don't need your help, I got this far all by myself And I've given everything
Oh purple skies and red clouds, buttercups and fire The chalice from which you drink, it doesn't help you think I recon so, I know so, a taste, now 24, lost sleep, gone Ethereal, an astronauts mentality, self-righteous vitality
You don't understand, 'cause you are not a strong man I don't need your help, I got this far all by myself a And I've given everything
And now I know why I had so much doubt in myself You pick me up and dust me off and put me back on the shelf Your about as hopeful as a cyanide pill It's always pretty scary when your not quite at the Take a cheap shot 'cause I don't give a shit This band of brothers capsizes and rolls round Reclaiming the shadows that we cast Kick-start this beast real fast
You don't understand, 'cause you are not a strong man I don't need your help, I got this far all by myself And I've given everything I've got nothing to say, you never knew me anyway You are a treachery to yourself Listen closely to this, the point you will still miss You'll think about how it affects you
