Nel (Another Statistic) Lyrics

To every kid in a broken home
With a story to tell
Getting by on your own
I know what you are-- I know where you've been
To every kid with a broken heart
It's a story from hell
And you want a fresh start
I know what you are-- I know where you've been

And it feels alright when I don't have to be
I don't want to be just another statistic
You can't write us off as a lost cause just yet
And though you feel alone
Don't you ever take a number
To see what it feels to be
Just another statistic

To every kid who's had enough
And it never ends
You'd drop the blade if you could
I know what you are-- I know where you've been
To every kid who can't measure up
You bow down to a toilet but it's never enough
I know what you are-- I know where you've been

And it feels alright when no one can see me
I don't want to be just another statistic
You can't write us off as a lost cause just yet
And though you feel alone
Don't you ever take a number
To see what it feels to be

Get in line broken hearts
Get in line not this time

I don't want to be just another statistic
You can't write us off as a lost cause just yet
And though you feel alone
Don't you ever take a number
To see what it feels to be
Just another statistic

I don't want to be just another statistic
You can't write us off as a lost cause just yet
And though you feel alone
Don't you ever take a number
To see what it feels to be
Just another statistic
