lyrics

They tell me I'm a quiet boy
Then why do I have so many words in my head

They tell me I'm a bright young lad
Then why does it seem I don't know these simple things
That all the other boys and girls make look so easy

They tell me do as you please
Then scoff when I ask and laugh at my plans
Tell me to lead but never to dream about
All that I am and all I hope to be

(Chorus) {
There is a hole in my head
That no one else can see
There is something in my chest
That's making me speak so quietly

There is no one in my bed
Cause I can't sleep
There is nothing that I've said or done
To make me feel like anyone

Like someone
Like everyone}

They tell me son you've done so well
Then why do I keep to me and my

They tell me to stop fighting on my own
How can I stop when that's all I've ever known

(Chorus)
