You were almost kind,
you were almost true,
don't let me see
that other side of you
you have learned in time
that you must be cruel,
i'll have to wait to get the best of you
poison in everything you say
don't you don't you
wonder what difference does it make
either way...
you were almost kind,
you were almost true,
but give away that other side of you
happens everytime
so it must be true
step on a kid
he'll grow up hating you
poison in everything you say
don't you don't you
wonder what difference does it make
either way...
were you ever kind
were you always cruel
who's ever seen that other side of you
happened everytime,
so it must be true
where did you learn it's either him or you
you were almost kind,
you were almost true,
don't let me see
that other side of you
you have learned in time
that you must be cruel,
i'll have to wait to get the best of you
poison in everything you say
don't you don't you
wonder what difference does it make
either way...
