Men and Women

I can't see how I can
Turn around what has been done
I was just like a child
With my eyes wide open
History and any cause
And my eyes are still open
But my mouth my mouth is shut
I'm closing off the lies
Making my own mind up
When I can I will
How many dirty little secrets
Were kept behind my back?
Men and women
Men and women
Men and women
Giving each other the sham
I don't see
How I can turn around what has been done
I was just like a child
With my eyes wide open
Hungry at any cost
Now my eyes are still open
But my mouth my mouth is shut
I'm closing out the lies and promises
Men and women
Men and women
Men and women
Giving me the sham
Giving me the sham
Giving me the sham
Men and women
Men and women
Giving me the sham
Men and women
Men and women
Giving me the sham
