John Schlitt - Don't Have To Take It lyrics

Joey is a boy like some Who thinks that risk is fun But blinded eyes can never See the price to come The sacrifice he's paying Can't slow down This race he's running To stay around He must keep moving So controlled by the pace of his surroundings He's got no chance of his own Hey! hey! hey! It's time that we face it Hey! hey! hey! We don't have to take it Julie is a perfect child To all there is no doubt But few can clearly see from Inside looking out The fear she's really feeling How do i look? am i ok? Do i fit in? what are they saying? So concerned over how the others see her She's lost all sight of herself Your worth does not depend on man It's more than he could understand Don't set your price Through other's eyes There's so much more
