this one's got Ann Marie Calhoun on strings... yay... my old buddy... even if she's playing with Paul and Ringo now... seriously. Also I get to do some John Williamsy stuff on Chamberlin at the end. The Chamberlin is like the Mellotron...
lyrics
The lies that I was told were lost on me
Just how they broke me down took years to see
Still ache from the bruises
of many old abuses
Words like water, seep right in
to rest somewhere beneath the skin
its weight no one loses
a burden no one chooses
I'll take those sticks and stones
with scrapes and cuts I can see
my body's full of mended bones
that never seem to bother me
the worst I've known
was your hateful tone
it caused the greatest injury
but I won't remember what was spoken
when I'm old and broken
when I'm old and broken
