Swollen feet ran

The beatings began

His younger brother was almost a friend

Who knows if every bruise shows

You'll get a chance to see them again

Pre-chorus

What a way to be learning

A child's fingers burning

It ate up his confidence

Chorus

How miserable!...

I'd rather be alone

But I didn't go through life the way he went...through

Mine's a little less spent

Deep six

A mouthful of fist

He's never really been on cloud nine

Years later

With no memories to savor

Can't blame him for leaving them behind

Pre-chorus

Can you feel his hunger

For dish soap for supper

Well I'd be his confidant

Chorus

How miserable!...

I'd rather be alone

But I didn't go through life the way he went...through

Mine's a little less spent
