Burn those letters of despair
Erase the traces of failed love affairs
Hide behind the make-up of truth or dare
See if I care
Nothing changes as times goes by
The anger swells, a rising tide
There’s more to love than meets the eye
I swear
Never will I ever feel that crushed
It’s carved to the bone, the stone of my soul
Cause once you’re crushed it goes on and on and on
Once you’re crushed it goes on and on and on
Traumatized or brutalized
Diagnosed or mystified
Swollen bellies and empty mouths
From the fear to remember to the shame of that surrender
Who is to defend her, am I that contender?
But I’ve changed since that time
Now I’m a different guy
Never will I ever feel that crushed
It’s carved to the bone, the stone of my soul
Cause once you’re crushed it goes on and on and on
Once you’re crushed it goes on and on and on…
