Текст песни Boyce Avenue - Mean

Standard (Capo 6)

You with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my feet again. Got me feelin' like a nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board callin' me out when I'm wounded
You, pickin' on the weaker man

Well you can take me down with just one single blow
but you don't know, what you don't know

Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city and all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me.
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.. Why you gotta be so mean?

Break:  

You, with your swithching sides and your wild fire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again. As if I don't already see them
I walk with my head down. Trying to block you out 'Cause I never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around. Somebody.... made you.... cold
But the cycle ends right now 'cause you can't lead me down that road
and you don't know what you don't know

Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city and all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me.
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.. Why you gotta be so mean?

Break:  

Solo: 

And I can see you years from now in a bar. Talking over a football game
With that same big loud opinion, but nobody's is listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing
But all you are is mean
All you are is mean              and alone in life and mean,
and mean and mean and mean

(Palm muted)
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city and all you're ever gonna be is mean

Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me.
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.. Why you gotta be so mean?

Someday I'll be livin' in a big ol' city and all you're ever gonna be is mean

 (Why you gotta be so mean?)

                               Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.. Why you gotta be so mean?
