Nature

He's nothing like you
Sometimes he seems a little strange
And he's done bad things too
The kind of things you couldn't think of
He's born to abuse the violence excites him
He's wired that way

Sometimes you get ahead of it
And sometimes you're in the thick of
All his anger and pain i've seen such rage
It's embraced me
Then squeezed all the blood from my brain
It kills me the instant I feel it begin
And like a doll I stand lifeless
And let it pour in

And I say, "Stop!" over and over
Over and over till it all fades

I'm not like you
I've learned to teeter on the edge
And I fall down and bruise
And make the climb back to the edge
Like I've never been blue i take it
I've made it i'm wired that way

I never seem to get ahead of it
I'm always in the thick of
All of his sorrow and blame

I could never save you
Just finally leave who i love till the end
