I have lived a lonely time
Of pleasing you or die

Washed away my coloured thoughts
And took the smile from me

My heart big and worn my thoughts brushed aside
Still you turn the knife in my side
My heart big and stong my soul lost and torn
Still I'll stand here with pride

You still don't accept me
Though I was pleasing you till dawn
Obstacles before me so that I could never fly

My heart big and worn, my thoughts brushed aside
Still you turn the knife in my side
Bled away my strength
So that I would break
But I know, I won't run and hide

I won't run and hide
I won't run and hide
Your guilt is not enough, enough
I won't run and hide

My heart big and worn my thoughts brushed aside
Still you turn the knife in my side
My heart big and worn my soul lost and torn
Still I'll stand here with pride

My heart big and worn my thoughts brushed aside
Still you turn the knife in my side
My heart big and worn my soul lost and torn
Still I'll stand by your side
