Mistreated

S.D.I.

Compositor: Não Disponível

Nobody can expect to
bet his life, and win
The knife in your back, boy
carries your friend's fingerprint

You've got no ground under your feet, and
you can't defend yourself
Only disappointments
when you rely on someone else

exhaustion causes mental weakness
tender devotion unmasks as pure selfishness
friends betray and lovers lie
tiresome favours you can't deny
nothing really works, at all
you feel your back against the wall

Mistreated, defeated
you feel lonesome and betrayed
you've got enough, you just can't wait
Mistreated, you're bleeding
but no-one sees the wounds you've got
no-one sees your flowing blood, oh no

You have reached the point when
nothing matters at all
You think, this will be your end
you won't take anymore

You know, you've lost this time
You've maybe lost your peace of mind

But if you have got self-respect
You will risk another bet
You know, your stake is your life
so try to win, try to survive

Mistreated, defeated
you feel lonesome and betrayed
you've got enough, you just can't wait
Mistreated, you're bleeding
but no-one sees the wounds you've got
no-one sees your flowing blood, oh no

Nobody can really take you down
You only have to take your chance
don't loose your power, don't hang around
and soon... you will be back again

You've learnt your lesson very well
you hide your heart, like in a shell

no-one hurts you anymore
you don't want something, you want more
be the hunter, not the victim
an emotional prison you want to live in, oh

Mistreated, defeated
you feel lonesome and betrayed
you've got enough, you just can't wait
Mistreated, you're bleeding
but no-one sees the wounds you've got
no-one sees your flowing blood, oh no
