[Verse 1]
I've been up and I've been down
As I searched the world around
Still, I can hardly tell you where I am
'Cause they got me in the head on my way out
The place that I come from
Inside of me, I'm fighting for my life, oh

[Refrain]
They get you when you're young
Right between the eyes
Knock you off your feet
Some don't make it out alive
And later in your years
It comes back to haunt you
You know it's only you between the eyes

[Verse 2]
In a sad situation, when communication's out
They'll beat you like they've known you your whole life
There's no one thing that can be without hypocrisy
And chaos is so easy to achieve, oh

[Refrain]
They get into your mind
Right between the eyes
Catch you when you fall
Some don't make it out at all
If later in our years
I come back a stranger
You know it's only me between the eyes
[Refrain]
Oh, they get into your life
Right between the eyes
Knock you off your feet
Some don't make it out alive
And later in your years
It comes back to haunt you
You know it's only you between the eyes
You know it's only me between the eyes
