Can barely hear what you're thinking
So many people interfering
I know you're in distress
With sorrow my eyes can see
And it pains me that you know
How it feels to be like me

If I only had a reason
Would try to understand
If I only had a reason to give a damn

Noticed while sitting on a fence
Faces of childlike innocence
Reflections of a time
When life seemed so red
Memories, some fill your heart
Deep down inside may never heal

If I only had a reason
Would try to understand
If I only had a reason to give a damn

Can barely hear what you're thinking
So many people interfering
I know you're in distress
With sorrow my eyes can see
And it pains me that you know
How it feels to be like me

If I only had a reason
Would try to understand
If I only had a reason to give a damn
