Piano Song Lyrics

[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
Never get angry at the stupid people
Though I go crazy at the dullness of my life
Sit and I stare into a dusty window
An empty face stares back at me and cries

[Chorus 1: Andy Bell]
My vulnerability rushes up to me
And I'm left here
The rebel without a cause
The deeper I delve into
The consciousness of me with you
The harder it gets
I need to close my eyes
What hurts me most
I'll never see your eyes again

[Interlude]

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
Though I get weary
Doesn't mean that I'm unwilling
My body belies me I'm of fertile mind
And as I grow older
The world forgets me
And talks to me as if I'm some kind of child
[Chorus 2: Andy Bell]
Their insensitivity washes over me
Till I'm left here
The rebel without a cause
The deeper I delve into
The consciousness of me and you
The harder it gets
I need to close my eyes
What hurts me most
I'll never see your eyes again

[Post-Chorus: Andy Bell]
The harder it gets
I need to close my eyes
I can't recollect
I'll never see your eyes again
I try to forget
I'll never see your eyes again
What hurts me most
I'll never see your eyes again

[Outro: Andy Bell]
(Don't touch me)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
