[Verse 1]
I try and feel the sunshine, you bring the rain
You try and hold me down with your complaints
You cry and moan and complain, you whine and tear
Up to my neck in sorrow, the touch you bring

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't just step inside to, to fourteen years
So hard to keep my own head, that's what I say and you know
I've been the beggar and I've played the thief
And I was the dog they all tried to beat

[Chorus]
But it's been
Fourteen years of silence, it's been
Fourteen years of pain, and it's been
Fourteen years that are gone and I'll
Never have again

[Verse 2]
Your stupid girlfriends tell you, that I'm to blame
They're all used up has-beens out of the game
This time I'll have the last word, you hear what I say?
I tried to see it your way, it won't work today

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't just step inside to, to fourteen years
So hard to keep my own head, that's what I say and you know
I've been the dealer hangin' on your street
And I was the dog they all tried to beat
[Chorus]
But it's been
Fourteen years of silence, it's been (Been)
Fourteen years of pain, and it's been (Been)
Fourteen years that are gone and I'll
Never have again
But it's been
Fourteen years of silence, it's been (Been)
Fourteen years of pain, and it's been (Been)
Fourteen years that are gone and I'll
Never have again
But it's been
Fourteen years of silence, it's been (Been)
Fourteen years of pain, and it's been (Been)
Fourteen years that are gone and I'll
Never have again
