Listen to the song and complete the lyrics

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the man
Behind blue eyes

And no one knows what it's like
 To be
To be fated
To telling only lies
 But my they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
 I have hours, only lonely
My is vengeance
That's never free
 No one knows what it’s like
To feel these feelings
Like I do, and I you!

No one bites back as hard
 On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can through
 But my they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
 I have hours, only lonely
My is vengeance
That's never free

Discover L-I-M-P (say it) [x4]
 No one knows what it’s like
To be mistreated, to be defeated
Behind blue eyes

And no one knows how to say
That they're
And don't worry
I'm not telling lies
 But my they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
 My is vengeance
That's never free
 No one knows what it’s like
To be the bad man
To be the man
Behind blue eyes
