Poor Boy

Why? It's all I wanted Why? It's all I wanted Why? It's all I wanted Why? It's all I wanted If I was you, and you were me You wouldn't need to be reminded You're a human being You wouldn't kick all the beg-a-bonds off the streets You've met all the greatest world police Now I know, now I know what it's like to be free Now I know, now I know what it's like to be free Now I know what it's like to be free Yes, you have just about everything I need You're shaking hands with the man While I'm spitting in his drink Tracers on a white lie will grow Grow, they will grow (it's all I wanted) Grow, they will grow (it's all I wanted) No, I don't like your grimacing smile No, now I know, now I know why Every hour provoking me (Every step I beg and plead Why? It's all I need) Running laps around your feet No, now I know what it's like to be free No, now I know what it's like to be free No, now I know what it's like to be free No, now I know what it's like Why? It's all I wanted Why? It's all I wanted Why? It's all I wanted Why? It's all I wanted Painted white roses You walked down red carpet I captured the moment And you just lost it Tracers on a white lie will grow Grow, they will grow (It's all I wanted) Grow, they will grow (It's all I needed) Grow, they will grow (It's all I wanted) Grow, they will grow (It's in, I want to) No, I don't like your grimacing smile No, now I know, now I know why Sat on the barstool frozen solid I followed misery until I was lost And did I tell you the story of the poor the boy With the weight on his shoulders He took on the world No I don't like your grimacing smile No, now I know, now I know just why Nobody likes you, nobody minds No, now I know, now I know just why You bought your sorrow You bought your sorrow (away) You bought your sorrow (never go, never go away) I'll find a way You bought your sorrow (never go, never go away) I'll find a way You bought your sorrow (never go, never go away) I'll find a way You bought your sorrow (never go, never go away) I'll find a way
