Anything you want  I’ve seen you get kicked and pulledSeen you treated like a foolBut you – always get up againI’ve seen them curse you and hurt youBut no-one does it quite like you doLike it doesn’t penetrate your skin I saw you shot right down in flamesMaybe sticks and stones may hurt but names?Are just something someone feels like sayingNo matter how much you would takeIt was like you shut down all your gatesTo hide the thought you felt like displaying. ChorusYou can say anything you wantBut you won’t change the way I feel.You can say anything you wantAnything you want Is it something in your mind?Some invisible suit of armour?That they can say anything they wantAnd it doesn’t seem like it could harm ya.Is it just a strong foundation?That you’ve built up on provocationYou don’t lose hope, you don’t lose sleepJust a way of dealing that’s yours to keep Chorus Never down so low, never laugh so loudYou keep your feet on the middle groundYou stand up straight, look them in the eyeAnd they never cut you down to sizeThose empty words tell me you won’t hear themWhen it’s time to show tell me you won’t fear them. Chorus
