I`ve kept my head against the wall
I`ve been this way for so long now
You weren`t exactly falling over yourself
When last I saw you
Well I always thought
We`d get along like a house on fire
Until you told me that I`d have to go
How can someone like you work that slow
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see
I don`t feel anything no more
The staid up graces consuming me
I`m not grown up and I am not a boy
I feel no pain and I feel no joy
Well I always thought
We`d get along like a house on fire
In those days when the sun was warm
I ran in the street where I was born
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see
The streets are so empty at this time of night
I`d rather walk on my own than fly
In a world where I`d forgotten you
I found myself forgotten, too
That`s the danger of your evil books
And all the lies of those thieves and crooks
We sing it`s our natural selves
I`ve not found it stolen but I had to prepare for you
