	Story Behind the Song Pt.1 deals with the reasons why a 'taste for pain' develops in some people. Pt. 2 Is a sort of mantra of acceptance of my state! Lyrics Thank You Pt. 1 Because of all those school detentions Because you starved me of affection Because my life was just rejection I gathered pain was my affection Because of 'Jesus meek and mild' Because I was a gentle child I wasn't what a boy should be They put the slave inside of me Now I'm stuck in this dance macarbre I'm a loser - It's not so hard! Because of all those little games The bittersweet reflex of shame The misdirection of desire I was the witch upon the pyre Now I'm stuck in those burning flames I'm a loser and you're to blame! Because of beatings every day Because I never had a say Figures of authority They didn't give a fuck for me Thank you, Teacher and the God Squad, too I'm a cripple and the blame's on you; yes it is I blame YOU - Yes I do!! Thank You Pt.2 Well, I tried so hard to be strong But I was only kidding you along In your eyes I'm half a man But you'd better take me as I am I don't come no other way! When I think of all the love I could have had All those wasted years can make me sad But I'm not a bitter man Now I'm gonna make my stand And this is how I'm gonna stay.
