Ran from the park cause i hate the bullies They want to punch when i just want to please And i'm here in this hallway, there's blood on my face You come and help me untie my knotted shoelace Teacher, would you teach me something today? Seems that my dreams all got lost on the way The people i cherish find me a disgrace I've made every bow in my life a knotted shoelace Stuck in this traffic jam a million cars long Over the drone of the radio song I hear you calling me home "come inside, it's supper time" Brother please Say something to me That is real, that i feel Who's gonna put the smile back on my face? Yeah, who's gonna get me back into the race? Who's gonna untie my knotted shoelace?
