I try and feel the sunshine You bring the rain You try and hold me down With your complaints You cry and moan and complain You whine an tear Up to my neck in sorrow The touch you bring You just don't step inside to 14 years So hard to keep my own head... that's what I say You know...I've been the beggar... I've played the thief I was the dog...they all tried to beat
But it's been 14 years of silence It's been 14 years of pain It's been 14 years that are gone forever And I'll never have again
Your stupid girlfriends tell you That I'm to blame Well they're all used-up has-beens Out of the game This time I'll have the last word You hear what I say I tried to see it your way It won't work today You just don't step inside to 14 years So hard to keep my own head...that's what I say You know...I've been the dealer... Hangin' on your street I was the dog...they all tried to beat
But it's been 14 years of silence It's been 14 years of pain It's been 14 years that are gone forever And I'll never have again
Bullshit and contemplation Gossip's their trade If they knew half the real truth What would they say Well I'm past the point of concern It's time to play These last 4 years of madness Sure put me straight Don't get back 14 years In just one day So hard to keep my own head Just go away You know...just like a hooker she said Nothin's for free Oh I tried to see it your way I tried to see it your way
