There's a heart in the middle of somewhere tonight

Screaming for reasons or just a way out

I put the shirt off my back on a wager that says

There's one every night from my old school yard days

I hear you say one [bad word] 

One [bad word] 

There's been times I've been stood in the wind and the rain

Freezing and busted and tricked out of luck

And I cursed my teachers for all of their reading

What we needed most can't be found in them books

One [bad word] 

Now they teach you to swim but they don't speak of the danger

Tell you the [bad word] but they never say why

Put you on ice that is thin and tell you it's winter

Without one [bad word] the [bad word] is a lie

One [bad word]
