I want love, but it's impossibleA man like me, so irresponsibleA man like me is dead in placesOther men feel liberatedI can't love, shot full of holesDon't feel nothing, I just feel coldDon't feel nothing, just old scarsToughening up around my heartBut I want love,...

Are you standing outside?Looking up at the skyCursing a wondering starWell If I were youI'd throw rocks at the moonI'd say damn you wherever you areI don't know where to startThis cage 'round my heartLocked up what I'd meant to sayOr I felt all along the wayJust...
