No one knows it like you do If it's spoken, then it's true How you rumble in my ear You're in the way of how I'm thinking And I won't let anyone sit back and waste my time No one!
Mazes, bold and shiny new High hopes, showy interludes Silver linings kill my clouds Your tinsel-town, I do not want it Perfect faces in a swarm This is where I draw the line
You'd give me stones for eyes to see the heartland through inner city tears Lost without my kind Plastic painted people You claim it is a home and try to win me over by telling me I'm wrong You may choose your fortress But this is mine
You'd give me stones for eyes to see the heartland through inner city tears Lost without my kind Sidewalks kill the spirit I've seen it all along You won't win me over by telling me I'm wrong This is my voice, my way Why would I let you undermine it? Choose your fortress This is mine
