I wish I had something to be more proud of I wish that I could raise my voice a little louder Stand up straight Like the people I hate Stand up tall But I keep laying down empty as a hall Cause lately I've been bent over Like blades of grass Bent over at the knees (like blades of grass) Rolled over by a gentle breeze (like blades of grass) Mowed over by an old machine (like blades of grass) Rolled over by a gentle breeze (like blades of grass) Like blades of grass I'm weak minded I always knew I never doubted I look to her I look to you To get me out And live life straight even if for a day Stand up tall but I keep staring out Blankly as a wall Cause lately I've been bent over Like blades of grass Bent over at the knees (like blades of grass) Rolled over by a gentle breeze (like blades of grass) Mown over by an old machine (like blades of grass) Blowed over by a gentle breeze (like blades of grass) Like blades of grass Like blades of grass Like blades of grass Like blades of grass And I was on my knees You always wait for me I Like blades of grass Like blades of grass I'm always on my knees You always wait for me (I wasn't strong enough) And every way I know he'll say I wasn't strong enough You always wait for me I wasn't strong enough Say it
