it's funny that way

you can get used to the

tears and the pain

what a child will believe

you never loved me

you can't hurt me now

i got away from you

i never thought i would

you can't make me cry

you once had the power

i never felt so good about myself

seems like yesterday

i lay down ne t to your

boots and i prayed

for your anger to end

oh father i have sinned

you can't hurt me now

i got away from you

i never thought i would

you can't make me cry

you once had the power

i never felt so good about myself

oh father you never

wanted to live that way

you never wanted to hurt me

why am i running away

oh father you never

wanted to live that way

you never wanted to hurt me

why am i running away

maybe someday

when i look back i'll be able to say

you didn't mean to be cruel

somebody hurt you too

you can't hurt me now

i got away from you

i never thought i would

you can't make me cry

you once had the power

i never felt so good

you can't hurt me now

i got away from you

i never thought i would

you can't make me cry

you once had the power

i never felt so good about myself
