Alright now
Everybody listen to me
As this time slips past me
I kneel, I don't stand
And I grow much more wise
As they said would be planned
But you couldn't take the time to close an eye
Or to see into their own shoes
'Cause all you do is look away towards the sky
And ignore you away others, look at you
♪
So if you sneak the ideas
And you take their name
But if you take that blade
Put it back where it came
So many ways
That you could change
But it didn't seem like many, liked you anyway
So open up your eyes, and take it in
But be careful, because it's caving in

You can't break my bones
You can't shatter my feelings
I have to sink like a stone
To see what you're feeling
So get off that throne
You're no longer appealing
♪
So when I come home
Marilyn
I sit on that floor
And I strap right in
I'm just a child who wants to crawl out of his skin
Open your eyes, and take that in

So watch out now

You can't break my bones
You can't shatter my feelings
I have to sink like a stone
To see what you're feeling
So get off that throne

Get off that throne
