Set Me Up

Well a thing was said to me
Times your enemy
It may heal a wound, but it wont hide a scar
And the only thing to do
Is to yourself be true
cause a head thats in the clouds wont see the stars
When i was young i never walked away
Id nail my colours to the wall
Though black and white soon turned to shades of grey
There is one thing that i really know for sure
Nobodys gonna set me up
Nobodys gonna set me up
Theres a bitterness in you
cause all you ever do
Is to drag your spirit screaming to the floor
But you gotta make your luck
Before your time is up
And they take you in your box out through the door
But im not saying i dont care at all
Id rescue you before you drown
But if behind my back they start to talk
Im a tougher kind of man this time around
Nobodys gonna set me up
Nobodys gonna set me up
When you look back and see what you have done
Well was it really that much fun
To laugh and kick the fallen ones
Gonna grow another skin
This ones getting thin
Ive been bitten twice but never lost my nerve
Well you gotta hide the hurt
When people dish the dirt
cause if you dont try nothing thats what you deserve
There are people with their eyes of green
Smiling when you take a fall
Maybe a friend or someone never seen
But even with my back against the wall
Nobodys gonna set me up
Nobodys gonna set me up
People said to me
Timesyour enemy
It may heal a wound, but it wont hide a scar
Nobodys gonna set me up
Nobodys gonna set me up
And the only thing to do
Is to yourself be true
cause a head thats in the clouds wont see the stars
