Back Where I Came From Lyrics
I'ma go back, back where I came from,
Back where I came from, that's where my heart lies now, now.
I'ma go home, back where I started,
Back where I started, home's where me heart is now, now.
I'm coming to you, cause you are the only one,
You are the only one who believed in me.
Throwing stones, sticks and stones
Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)
But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)
And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.
Listen to me, I sound like an old man now,
Only the unregretful of us stay young, young.
And I've got a thousand things that I wish I hadn't done.
Like throwing stones, sticks and stones
Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)
But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)
And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.
They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.
Say them anyway.
Stones, stones, stones
They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.
Say them anyway.
Stones, sticks and stones
Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)
But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)
And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.
They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.
Back where I came from, that's where my heart lies now, now.
I'ma go home, back where I started,
Back where I started, home's where me heart is now, now.
You are the only one who believed in me.
Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)
But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)
And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.
Only the unregretful of us stay young, young.
And I've got a thousand things that I wish I hadn't done.
Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)
But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)
And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.
They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.
Say them anyway.
Say them anyway.
Will break them bones, will break them bones (stones)
But these words are all I have, I have to throw (stones)
And I'm throwin' em hard, I'm throwin' em hard.
They're only words, they won't hurt nobody.

He has done something that everybody hates him for. The only person who stood by his side is "you" in the song. And he regrets what he's done. No matter howhe pleads he is an outcast to the world. They hurt him and he is helpless. All he can do it throw spiteful words even though he knows they won't do any good or harm.
When I read it I couldn't help but feeling sorry for Dan. Such sad lyrics, I think.
