George - Jaded lyrics

Scrounging through the sh** to find a place to call home To settle in, set up shop, pull out your wares and play To sing a song to you, for you and I suppose for me I need to remember what I gain and why I'm here The sign says gents but I dont see none here The sign says ladies but I'm a lady feeling alone Everything I need to survive is feeling threatened 1/2 CHORUS: I dont want you to make me jaded I dont want to give you the power to make me old I do it because I wanna have my say, give it up for you But you chose to throw it back at my face with your distortions I feel sorry for you, but you feel sorry for me Seeing that power sometimes lies in the hands of the weakest, the lowest kind The power to make me scream when I only want to whisper The power to make me punch when I only want to caress you CHORUS: I dont want you to make me jaded I dont want to give you the power to make me raise my voice I dont want you to make me jaded

I dont want to give you the pleasure of seeing me cry I just want to find a beautiful face And remember why I am standing here I just want to be at that beautiful place And remember why we're standing here I speak what I feel and then it's judged by you But when I judge you, you get pissed off I'm no different to you I do have the time to listen, I have the time to care When I've had my say I'm happy to listen to yours Just grant me the time to let you have your monies worth I'm so jumpy, I'm on edge, I'm ready to bite at your chance CHORUS: I dont want you to make me jaded I dont want to give you the pleasure of stripping my colours to your grey I dont want you to make me jaded I dont want to give you the power to make me hard and cold I just want to find a beautiful face And remember why I am standing here I just want to be at that beautiful place And remember why we're standing here And remember why we're standing here
