I am the bastard,
that's what everyone believes me to be.
They are too blind with ignorance,
that they just cannot see
the untold truth about me.
I try to be gentle,
I try to be kind,
but everything I do,
I screw it up.
I'm starting to lose my mind.

I am the bastard,
the liar,
the cheater,
everything I'm not.
You believe what you want,
just don't spread around,
because I'm sure that if it happened to you,
you wouldn't like it a whole lot.

I am the bastard,
the violent son-of-a-bitch,
that everyone hates,
and wants to see end up in a ditch.
But I'm still here,
take your best shot,
because if I die,
then your future is hot.

I am the bastard
who's loyal and true,
and no one believes me,
 yet they'll listen to you.
You know the truth,
you know the lies,
you know who I am,
deep down inside.
Everyone hurts,
everyone feels pain,
but I just want you to remember,
that if I suffer...
then you'll die in vain.
