Lyrics

No one knows what it's like

No one comprehends the experience

To be the bad man

To inhabit the role of a villain

To be the sad man

To occupy the space of a sorrowful individual

Behind blue eyes

Existing with feelings of sadness and melancholy, symbolized by blue eyes


No one knows what it's like

No one understands

To be hated

To be despised or strongly disliked

To be fated

To be destined or predestined

To telling only lies

To consistently communicate falsehoods or deceit


But my dreams

Despite appearing unfulfilled, my aspirations or hopes aren't entirely void

They aren't as empty

My dreams or aspirations are not as devoid of substance as my conscience might suggest

As my conscience seems to be

Despite a seemingly empty conscience, my dreams hold some significance


I have hours, only lonely

I have periods of time characterized by loneliness

My love is vengeance

My love is driven by a desire for retribution or revenge

That's never free

This desire for retribution is not without cost or sacrifice


No one knows what it's like

No one understands the depth of these emotions

To feel these feelings

To experience intense emotions like mine

Like I do

I attribute these feelings to you

And I blame you

I hold you responsible for these emotions


No one bites back as hard

No one retaliates with such intensity in response to their anger

On their anger

None express their anger as forcefully

None of my pain and woe

No indication of my suffering can be observed externally

Can show through

My pain remains hidden from view


But my dreams

My dreams or aspirations possess some substance

They aren't as empty

Despite feeling a lack of conscience, my dreams hold significance

As my conscience seems to be

There's depth to my dreams despite an apparent lack of conscience


I have hours, only lonely

I experience extended periods of loneliness

My love is vengeance

My love or desire for retribution comes at a cost

That's never free, mm-mm-hmm

This desire for retribution always comes with a price


When my fist clenches, crack it open

When I feel enraged, I try to control it

Before I use it and lose my cool

I attempt to prevent myself from losing control or acting impulsively

When I smile, tell me some bad news

Before I express happiness, inform me of something distressing

Before I laugh and act like a fool

I don't want to appear foolish after expressing joy


And if I swallow anything evil

If I consume anything malevolent or harmful

Put your finger down my throat

Intervene to prevent any harm caused by what I've consumed

And if I shiver, please give me a blanket

If I react physically due to discomfort, provide warmth or comfort

Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

Offer solace or protection during vulnerable moments


No one knows what it's like

No one comprehends the experience

To be the bad man

To inhabit the role of a villain

To be the sad man

To occupy the space of a sorrowful individual

Behind blue eyes

Existing with feelings of sadness and melancholy, symbolized by blue eyes
