Don't take it so hard on me
Like Lightning in the distance
By the road side selling visions
un-complicate your system
in search of premonition
A secret known to warriors
whose company I keep
you can be both fragile
and be brave
ridden hard without complaint
unfairly burdened beast
who'll never turn to you as if to say
don't take it so hard on me.
Anyone can do it
don't you know that it's a fact
there aint nothing to it
well how about that
whatever gets you through it
thinking so dont make it bad
depends on how you view it
whatcha think about that?
In a world that seldom shows
a mercy to the strong
surprised to find what I need
to heal me
like any wounded creature
seeking shelter from the storm
a simple touch
is all I have to say
don't take it so hard on me.
