thinking the world a fine place to be
when the man on my right got up to leave
and left a little piece of his mind with me
he said, "faggots like you should be put in asylums"
now tell me, who takes the blame
for his being  scared, so unaware
that he would fire his  fear without an ounce of shame
whatever happened to love thy neighbour?
nothing more than a worn out clich?

are all men created  equal or has this too become pass??
you don't need to open your mouth for me to read your lips
i can follow the language displayed on your finger tip
they don't  look before they leap
they don't think before they speak
they just sharpen their tongues  on you and me
spit  poison  darts between perfect teeth

	you've got to take it from the source
	look at where it's coming from
	you're got to take it from the source
	they're only wasted words on me

i guess i just don't measure up
strayed from the straight and narrow road
so you lock me up, throw away the key
'cause i don't live by your dress code
that's ok, i've heard it before
you can open the wound i feel no pain
i don't need an armour suit
you're the one with the ball and chain

-chorus
