From the Heart



So you've got to play their little game-

You've got to sing along

You've got to beat his prison,

So you'll join him in his song

But your eyes they brim with perfect tears,

As he shuts you up at will

Until you're feeling so screwed up,

He makes you take his pill.



Refrain:

But you can't do anything you don't wanna do

You won't really feel it if it aint right for you

Darlin', don't do nothin' 'cuz you're acting out

a part

You aint doing nothing, if it aint from the heart.



You haven't got no confidence,

You haven't got a friend.

Your relatives, they try to love you, but

still you will defend.

You'll hang around until you're found,

You've made a few mistakes.

You'll primp and preen until you're seen

You're nothin' but a fake.



refrain:



And now you're seeking stardom, fame and

fortune,

Power and wealth.

You know you can't love noone if you do not

Love yourself-

But tell me, babe, what happened?

Did you finally get your day?

If he's doin' what he feels,

He'll get up and walk away.



refrain:
