lyrics

Holdin’ my baby in my arms watching her feeding off me
And sometimes I get happy looking down at her
And sometimes I just want to put her in a basket and leave her
At your doorstep, yeah

I wonder why some people go away so soon before their time
Are they just feeling sorry for themselves
Or do they hear somebody who is crying for them somewhere else

I killed a man today, but I did not think about it
I left him there to die by the gutter on the roadside
Well, he raped a girl last year, but he did not think about it
He left her there to die in the gutter on the roadside

And they tell me killing’s not the answer
And they tell me we got a reason to live
I don’t know anyone like you
I don’t know why I’m not like you

Standing between the day and night watching them pointing at me
Sometimes I get happy being all alone
And sometimes I just want to put you in my pocket and take you everywhere I go

What if you murdered me tonight, what if I fell out of the sky
What if I wait around for more I can’t see anything that’s right
What if you murdered me tonight, what if I fell out of the sky
What if I wait around for more I can’t see anything
And sometimes I don’t want to be a part of this
Like someone who I once knew, and you know who you are

I don’t know anyone like you
I don’t know why I’m not like you

And you know who you are
And you know who you are
I know who you are
