somebody told me that you were cryin
i didnt want to know
invincible you seemed to me
now i dont want this life any more

somebody told me all about hell
and that i shouldnt go
i said i didnt care and i would face it
oh if i'd only known

somebody told me there would be fightin
and i'd get knocked to the floor
on the ground and staring at blue skys
only the birds and i know

somebody told me that you were cryin
i didnt want to know
invincible you seemed to me
now i dont want this life any more

nobody told me about this life
i swear i wouldnt have come
and now im stuck here without a prayer
nowhere to go but home

somebody told me that you were cryin
i didnt want to know
invincible you seemed to me
now i dont want this life any more
