Mean to Me
There's an empty place inside that is hurting meA place that keeps my heart out on it's ownA disconnected function of my wretchednessThat keeps me so hard pressed It's a place where words are spoken youWill never hearA broken bridge of lines that just won't comeAn empty lung that won't give the windTo speak at meHow far can it be from homeWhy you gotta be so mean to meWhy you gotta drag me down just to make me seeYou know I don't listen good and I'm always in needSo why you gotta be so mean to meDo you think that it got up and leftFor good this timeA crowd of faceless strangers moving onA feeling that you left it all behind you nowThat it doesn't hurt somehowTo knowWhy you gotta be so mean to meWhy you gotta drag me down just to make me seeYou know I don't listen good and I'm always in needSongtexteSo why you gotta be so mean to meSo open up the book that you keep deep insideLet the pages yellow in the sunShow them that you're not afraid to let them seeHow far you can be From homeWhy you gotta be so mean to meWhy you gotta drag me down just to make me seeYou know I don't listen good and I'm always in needSo why you gotta be so fucking mean to meWhy you gotta be Why you gotta beWhy you gotta be Why you gotta beWhy you gotta be Why you gotta beWhy you gotta be so mean to me Aus Songtexte Mania
