And I said no to all the men I’ve come across    Through the years, I’ve been living strong, and today   I’m not afraid of love a different shade   So much that light could never hope to travel through      Yeah, and I said no, but all the things around my feet   Point the other way and I’m afraid I could be wrong      Put up walls around where you stay   Different kinds for different days   In this town I’m trying to live   The other side is easier still      Yeah, and I said no, but in my heart I’ve always been   A little in between the old and straight line family ways   Not long ago, not long ago, I do recall the uphill battle to today      Yeah, when they said go, and in their faces I could see   And all I thought of was suicide, I’m nothing of a man      Put up walls around where you stay   Different kinds for different days   In this town I’m trying to live   The other side is easier still      You’re still afraid of me      Yeah, and I said no to all the men I’ve come across   Through the years, I’ve been living strong, and today   Salt waterfalls, and falls and falls   And I’ve got scars to show I’m crying all the time      You’re still afraid of me
