Paroles de Despite what you've been told

Well, i guess by the blood stain of your lips
And the wander of your fingertips
I should prove true to my emptiness
And stay here

Well, im just a kid of ill repute
But the skin i wear is my only suit
And you, youre just a substitute
For the one that i hold dear

You know, you could be anyone
God forgive my tasteless tongue
I never should have been set free

I claw my eyes, i skin my face
Beg somehow to be replaced
Thats how we deal with boys like me

Well, i guess for this world so sick with loss
And your service is so free of cost
I should climb down off my rugged cross
And lay with you

But you know, by now it's half past late
And i only came here for escape
You youre just my next mistake
Like me to you

You know, you could be anyone
God forgive your unborn sons
I hope they dont end up like me

I drag my mind through streets of shame
Lay myself forgive the game
Thats how we deal with boys like me

But despite what you've been told
I once had a soul
Left somewhere behind
A former friend of mine

And i hate to speak so free
But you mean nothing to me
So if the street lights they shine bright
Ill get home tonight

I guess by the dim light in your eyes
And that to you all things come as a surprise
I should set the steel trap of your thighs
And dive right in

But to you im just a confused child
Insecure or in denial
Go raise your robes, go have your trial
Ill let you win

You know, i could be anyone
God forgive what i should've done
A thoughts enough to guilty be

Yes, i guess i made this bed
But ill take the sidewalk instead
Thats how we deal with boys like me

But despite what youve been told
I once had a soul
Left somewhere behind
A former friend of mine

And i hate to sound so true
But i mean nothing to you
So, if the street lights they shine bright
Ill be home tonight
