Those Poor Bastards

No One Lyrics



I'm not the beast they've made me out to be

I've done some good things, I've done some good things

Like you, I have stumbled once or twice

And done some bad things, I've done some bad things

My body is a thing corrupt and wrong

It is guilty, yeah, it is guilty

My spirit is the thing that's dragged along

It is innocent, lord, it is innocent



Oh, separate my body from my soul



Let's go back, to how things were back then

When I was younger, when I was younger

Everything was either black or white

It was easier, so much easier

Now everything it looks so grey

I'm older, now I'm older

Show me a man who deserves to die

You cannot convince me, you cannot convince me

Now show me a man who deserves to live

You have no evidence, you have no evidence



I tried so hard to tell you truth

But I lied to you, I have lied to you

The things that you learn and know so well

They are fleeting, yes, they are fleeting

You're the one who told me who I was

You said "You're no one", so now I'm no one?
