lyrics

New to Old Song
September 29, 1991

people tell me in my walk through life
never look at that, it's evil
don't touch the bad -
but I blink and ask this -
tell me why -
I get no answer
least one I understand
it should be against my religion, they say -
or walk away
never to tell me what went wrong -

I look to the mirror my face lives in tonight
am I evil? am I evil? am I evil?
but the mirror reflects the words cleanly
the question is me, the answer is me

so when they walk up in the world
tell me that I'm wrong
I listen and smile
ask them to explain -
what is this wrongness I am living?
what find you so hard to face?
if you'd take some time to tell me
may be I'll change -
but walking away, when it long ago cured fighting
solved no issues -
I'll not know how I offended
or tell my reasons
believe -
and if I like not your reasons
why change?
