Nobody Hurts You

I try to pull my weight, study my geography

It doesn't seem to get me anywhere

I hold a picture up, everybody thinks it's me

I get a thrill out of tampering with the atmosphere

Hey baby, I'm out of favour

Can't always be the right flavour

It just seems that no matter what you do

Someone, somewhere's suddenly gotta punish you

Nobody hurts you nobody hurts you

Nobody hurts you nobody hurts you

Harder than yourself harder than yourself

Harder than yourself harder than yourself

I once had this dream, woke up with the daily news

And it looked like forever

I had a coffee fix, every item there to choose?

All my love came by letter

Suffocating in suburbia

The new estates build claustrophobia

Grandfather's money only in the finest stuff

That's enough, that's enough, that's enough

You make me tag along, run into the rent-a-crowd

But they're just imitation

I try to write the song, you and me are laughing loud

But it comes out frustration

Noone's going to illuminate you

All the odds are stacked against you

You're just cavin' in, right there in front of me

It's a picture I don't ever want to see
