I give up
I'm tired of falling down
Oh how could I stick around this town
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
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
The swinging door made an awful sound
The stars laugh behind the clouds over this town
With violence in language the children play
Or 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
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
A pain that will keep growing 'til it meets with the bone
Pain that makes you shiver til you come back home
