Out on the margins of town I been stuck hanging round These amateur clowns Wondering where were you The only song we knew Was our amateur blues
If you believed why’d you leave me If you believed why’d you leave me Even after sticks and stones were spoken I’m alive I’m alive And I’m unbroken I’m unbroken
I been abused and misled I been stuck in my head Unsung and unsaid Been on needles and thread I been left for dead But I’m living instead
If you believed why’d you leave me If you believed why’d you leave me Even after sticks and stones were spoken I’m alive I’m alive And I’m unbroken I’m unbroken
Give me a song to sing Something to balance out The fits and starts That life can bring I’m waiting Give me a song to sing A decent melody Because I’m alone and I’m nineteen And I feel like the world Is trying to swallow me whole Like it’s trying to swallow me whole
If you believed why’d you leave me If you believed why’d you leave me Even after our sticks and stones were spoken I’m alive I’m alive And I’m unbroken Yeah I’m unbroken I’m unbroken I’m alive And I’m unbroken
