I was born walking this road
filled with beauty and pain
and though the day's beautiful
the nights get so cold
and it's always the same
yes, yes, it's always the same
walking on the bruise like I'm used to
and two roads to choose from
and it's clear to me
which road I'm going to lose from
this thorn in my foot
has since been removed
but it's got me walking on the bruise
I was a man oh so bold
like a lion so strong
I got this thorn in my paw
then this mouse came along
and said: "My friend, now who's strong?
Yes, yes, my friend, now who's strong?"
walking on the bruise like I'm used to
and two roads to choose from
and it's clear to me
which road I'm going to lose from
this thorn in my foot
has since been removed
but it's got me walking on the bruise
on the bruise where I feel my pain
though it's bruise that pain will go away
eventually I know we're going to see
what's real for us can never be bruised
