Lyrics

well i sailed across the ocean.
i went to foreign land.
And the only thing i ever recognized
was the hatred in the hearts of young men.
I saw two men fightin' over the heart of a girl neither knew.
and when that wind started blowin' over that northern sky... man, I knew we were doomed.
well i didn't have much to say
and what i said was usually wrong.
Cause when you're chained up and held down with a knife to your throat you realize you're better off alone.
well you ain't my brother
and i'll never be your friend.
People who like you who lie and say that they're free only capture themselves in the end.
i wrote this song for no one
yet i sing it just for you.
you can tell by the way a man says his words whether or now he tells the truth.
i know who I am and I know what i'm not.
Don't give me what I don't really need cause you don't need what you ain't got.
