It doesn't pay to try all the smart boys know why It doesn't mean I didn't try, I just never know why Feel so cold and all alone, baby you're not at home And when I'm home, big deal I'm still alone
Fee; so restless I am, beat my head against a pole Try to knock some sense, down in my bone And even though they don't show, the scars aren't so old And when they go, they let you know
You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try, don't try
You're just a bastard kid, and you got no name 'Cause you're living with me, we're one in the same And even though they don't show the scars aren't so old And when they go, they let you know
You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory You can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try, don't try
