Lyrics
DON'T MAKE ME CRY
WHO MADE THE RULES
WHO'LL PAY THE PRICE
THE COMPROMISE
THE SACRIFICE
THOSE LITTLE VOICES OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR
MAKE YOU FEEL SCARED
AND SO UNSURE
WHO'LL GO THE DISTANCE
WHO'LL TAKE THE BLAME
THE INCONSISTENT LIVE WITH THE SHAME
WHO'LL POINT THE FINGER
WHO'LL SLAP YOUR HAND
WHO'LL TURN AWAY
WHO'LL UNDERSTAND
BY A COMMON MAN
THE LAWS WERE MADE
FOR CENTURIES OUR MINDS ENSLAVED
TO THE MISCONCEPTION THE NARROW THOUGHT
THE IGNORANCE
THAT WE'VE BEEN TAUGHT
DON'T MAKE ME CRY
AND HEARTS OF JUDGMENT WILL ALWAYS BE THERE
I'D BE A LIAR TO SAY I DIDN'T CARE
I WANT TO FIGHT I WANT TO RUN
YOU WANT TO LOVE ME AND NOT HURT ANYONE
I'LL BE EVERYTHING THAT YOU'LL EVER NEED
I'LL BE YOUR HUNGER YOUR LUST YOUR GREED
I'LL BE EVERYTHING YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND
I'LL BE YOUR WOMAN I'LL BE YOUR MAN
I LIVE IN SIN I LIVE IN FEAR
I LIVE THESE MOMENTS I LIVE THEM CLEAR
THAT YOU ARE THE ONE I CAN'T DENY
DON'T BREAK MY HEART
DON'T MAKE ME CRY
WHEN YOU HEAR THOSE VOICES
INSIDE YOUR HEAD
THE DEMONS DANCE
AROUND YOUR BED
JUST TAKE A LISTEN TO YOUR HEART
IT'S SOCIETY TEARING US APART
YOU THINK TO BE WITH ME
YOU'LL HAVE TO LIVE A LIE
RUN AGAINST THE WIND
HAVE WINGS AND NEVER FLY
IT'S NOT YOUR DEMISE NOT YOUR FALL FROM GRACE
IT'S PURELY LOVE WRITTEN ON YOUR FACE
DON'T MAKE ME CRY
WHO MADE THE RULES
WHO'LL PAY THE PRICE
THE COMPRISE THE SACRIFICE
THOSE LITTLE VOICES OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR
MAKE YOU FEEL SCARED
