the body talks

Singer: rage

oh

never

you can't hear me

once in a while surely will come a day

when tiny symptoms grow to might pain

i built you up

you bring me down

what can i do just to make you see

that an early warning's meant to avoid the worst?

i am your friend

you live through me

i am your body

you only go me

why don't you treat me like it's meant to be?

oh

never

you can't hear me

oh

though all the time you're near me

once in a while surely will come a day

when tiny symptoms will grow to mighty pain

oh

never

you can't hear me

oh

though all the time you're near me

soon in a time

then you will not refuse

you got to listen when the body talks!

do what you like

but what it is

please do not use me like if i was machine

i am not

i need respect and i'm worth it

if you would care for me just in a way that you care for your car

oh

never

you can't hear me. give me something to keep me strong

i don't want poison or drugs

keep me working

then give me rest or i'll die

oh

never

you can't hear me.
