I knew a man who had a wife
He loved her for some time
Then walked out of her life
And I knew a son who had a mother
He took the love she gave
Disappeared and threw it away
And I never want
To be like that
No I never want
To end up like that
I knew a man who had friends
He took what they could give
Was never there for them in the end
And I knew a man who had a brother
He took all he gave
Then disappeared and walked away
And I never want
To be like that
No I never want
To end up like that
I knew a man who had a life
He used everyone; all they had
And never thought twice
Yea, I knew a man who had a life
He used everyone
Died alone with no one by his side
And I never want
To be like that
No I never want
To end up like that
