They don’t write love songs for the lonely
It’s always ‘the one’ never ‘hold me’
They never say what happened
If you’re not happy in the end
They won’t write pretty things about me
It’s either anger or they’ll doubt me
They never hang around to see
If I drowned or got set free
And it’s not the same if you’re not watching
I’ve got a point to make, and I’ve come knocking
On every goddamn door that ever slammed in my face
Yeah, I’ve got some scores to settle, and I’m sick of being gentle
And it’s not the same if you’re not watching
I was soft once, but it bored me
Cause every knock, well it floored me
I don’t mourn, I paid the price
There’s nothing easy about being nice
And it’s not the same if you’re not watching
I’ve got a point to make, and I’ve come knocking
On every goddamn door that ever slammed in my face
Yeah, I’ve got some scores to settle, and I’m sick of being gentle
And it’s not the same if you’re not watching
So watch me, cause it’s not the same
No, it’s not the same if you’re not watching
And wondering, and discussing
So keep watching
