Hands Held Back

(mmmmm) I trust they don't trust me

I see it in their eyes Don't know what I've done

Or what I haven't done

But I'm tired of being frowned at

By the family name

I wish I never said yes On that certain day (oh-oh-oh)

Everyone changes overnight

And they stopped holding back their fists

The words became

louder and hurtful

I'm standing out in the cold The words became

louder and hurtful And the stories they told

(why did I say yes?)

Walking under heavy grey skies

Feeling like a ghost in the hall

No one wants to look at my face

Waiting for another heavy blow to fall

The words became

louder and hurtful

I'm standing out in the cold The words became

louder and hurtful And the stories they told

(so loud,

so loud)

I wish I never said yes

On that certain day

(never said yes)
