Judge me - Blaze Bayley

I’ve made some bad choices I have failed more than once

I have taken chances even when they did not come

I was here at the beginning I will be here at the end

when I got strong I got lucky till my strength ran out again.

with your values of fear and deceit

your self important impotent way of life decrees

that every one should worship you

down on bended knees

I have risen up from the ashes of my own defeat

my family my friends and my fans were calling me

It seemed like a voice from a half remembered forgotten dream

I thought it was over, but over’s not what it seems

Your hedonistic head on a stick

is what I would pay real money to see on live TV

With some friends from Texas would laugh with me

at you the pale and impaled

You haven’t faced what I’ve faced

You haven’t fought what I’ve fought

You haven’t been on the floor

and tried to come back for more

You haven’t lost what I’ve lost

You haven’t won what I’ve won

You haven’t been where I’ve been

You haven’t done what I’ve done

Unless you lived how I lived

unless you did what I did

you think you know who I am

just by looking at me

You judge me
