Now, I don't know much, but the one thing I do
Is that love, love's hurts all who've touched her jealous roots
And you're the flower in a bed where I'm born to lose

Oh I, oh I, oh I
I need exception from [bad word] of attraction
'cause I really, really, really can't accept them
You're so above me in the measure of beauty
And I don't think it's fair that that should stop me
I know that you'll never see the heart that beats underneath
That's why I need exception from [bad word] of attraction
When [bad word] to you

Lies feed from lust and its poisonous [bad word] And baby, you, you can't help but love its shallow juice
There's so much you'll never see 'cause you can't see through

Oh I, oh I, oh I
I need exception from [bad word] of attraction
'cause I really, really, really can't accept them
You're so above me in the measure of beauty
And I don't think it's fair that that should stop me
I know that you'll never see the heart that beats underneath
That's why I need exception from [bad word] of attraction
When [bad word] to you
Oh, when [bad word] to you

Don't you know the path you're on is paved
With all the hearts you've been leaving broken and bleeding
And can't you see the life you're living only ends
With lying and cheating, hurt and deceiving

Oh, when [bad word] to you
Oh I, oh I, yeah
Oh I, oh I, yeah, oh
