Jaded - George

Scrounging through the shit 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
