He tells you when. he tells you why. he tells you wherefore.
What to do and how it's doneand how to be for him.
It's all about control. it's all about control.
You're his life. you're his strength. but he's you're weakness
He knows you careknows you givebut he couldn't care less.
He fits you to his mouldchipping at you soul...

Chorus

It tears me up to see the way that he treats you
To see the way that he brings you down and down.
He's turning you inside out.
It breaks me up to see the way that you take it
To see the way that he spins you round and round
Turning you upside down...
Mockingbird
Mockingbird...

Afraid to leave. afraid to lose. afraid of living.
You turn to him. you turn to me. but it lies in you.
It's waiting to be found
It's waiting to be found
So feel your heartfeel your painfeel your anger
If you fight the fearfind the wordsyou'll find the answer.
Like a cat held upside down
You'll land feet on the ground.

Chorus

You never know what life will bring.
Trust your spirit. find your wings.
Find your voice and let it sing
Let it sing...

Chorus
