There's an empty place inside that is hurting me
 place that keeps my heart out on its own
 disconnected function of my wretchedness
 That keeps me so hard pressed 
 It's a place where words are spoken you
 will never hear
 broken bridge of lines that just [bad word] 
 An empty lung that won't give the wind
 to speak at me
 How far can it be from home

 Why you gotta be so mean to me
 Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
 You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
 So why you gotta be so mean to me

 Do you think that it got up and left
 for good this time
 crowd of faceless strangers moving on
 feeling that you left it all behind you now
 That it doesn't hurt somehow
 To know

 [bad word] 

 So open up the book that you keep deep inside
 Let the pages yellow in the sun
 Show them that you're not afraid to let them see
 How far you can be From home

 Why you gotta be so mean to me
 Why you gotta drag me down just to make me see
 You know I don't listen good and I'm always in need
 So why you gotta be so [bad word] mean to me
 Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
 Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
 Why you gotta be Why you gotta be
 Why you gotta be so mean to me
