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 when 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

If I smile tell me some bad news

Before I laugh and act like a fool



And if I swallow anything evil

Put your finger down my throat

But if I shiver would you 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
