Behind Blue Eyes


No one knows what it's like



To be the bad man



To be the sad man



Behind blue eyes





No one knows what it's like



To be hated



To be fated



To telling only lies





But my dreams



They aren't as empty



As my conscience seems to be





I have hours, only lonely



My love is vengeance



That's never free





No one knows what it's like



To feel these feelings



Like I do



And I blame you





No one bites back as hard



On their anger



None of my pain and woe



Can show through





But my dreams



They aren't as empty



As my conscience seems to be





I have hours, only lonely



My love is vengeance



That's never free





When my fist clenches, crack it open



Before I use it and lose my cool



When I smile, tell me some bad news



Before I laugh and act like a fool





If I swallow anything evil



Put your finger down my throat



If I shiver, please give me a blanket



Keep me warm, let me wear your coat





No one knows what it's like



To be the bad man



To be the sad man



Behind blue eyes
