Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I give up
I'm tired of falling down
Oh, how
Could I stick around?
This town
[Chorus]
In hiding, where strangers all know my name
Derided in anguish, ignored, and shamed
They're hearing both sides now
Son, you let me down
You really shouldn't talk so loud
They're clearly hearing both sides now
Oh, oh, you didn't make yourself this way
So I may die waiting for you
To understand
It's easier to be holy than it is to be sane
When you say you know me, it will cause great pain
[Bridge]
The swinging door
It made an awful sound
The stars
They laugh behind the clouds over this town
[Chorus]
With violence in language, the children play
They quietly languish, close their eyes, and aim
At both sides now
Son, you let me down
You really shouldn't act so proud
They're clearly seeing both sides now
Oh, oh, you didn't make yourself this way
So I may die waiting for you
To understand
It's easier to be holy than it is to be sane
When you say you know me, it will cause you pain
[Outro]
A pain that will keep growing till it meets with the bone
Pain that makes you shiver till you come back home
