You got me burnin'
Burned out of my head
My body's lying
My spirit is dead

Your breath down my neck
Money you're earning

To burn out than just fade away
But there's no use in trying
When all you do is tear me apart
And you will never understand me

You do the choosing
You got me burned out
And it's me who is losing

I felt a change
Within me
I never felt something
So deeply
I felt your heart

And life
It smiled at me
And the day you were gone
It's been hurting ever since

Oh I loved you baby
More than you'll ever know
And the pain that's inside of me
I never never let go
Forgive me forgive me
Forgive me for what I've done
And I won't blame it blame it
Blame it on anyone
For I carry you still
Years go by
I regret
Take what you can
Nothing
Can replace
I'm stuck in the dark
No lights
It won't save me
And the days you're not here
Life will never be the same

Oh I loved you baby
More than you'll ever know
And the pain that's inside of me
I never never let go
Forgive me forgive me
Forgiv me for what I've done
And I won't blame it blame it
Blame it on anyone

5. Gone So Long

You been gone so long
And the truth been hanging on
Ruthless lies our bleeding words
You're surprised it's over

Oh tomorrow the shame remains
Tomorrow I'll bear the pain
Only the gods keep the secrets untold
Time flew by, today we're old

Worthless fights, a living hell
Vicious thoughts kept feeding the flame

On this night I'll carry you home
On this night I'll pull you in

Oh when that hollow note
Reach the end of its tone
Pulls me from the deep
Oh it's a heavy load
Walking down this road
You got the worst of me
This time tomorrow
See what tomorrow will bring
Again

You been gone so long
And the truth been hanging on
On this night I'll carry you home
On this night I'll pull you in

Help me I cannot bear how this sorrow sings
Save me from the empty madness my sorrow brings

Oh when that hollow note
Reach the end of its tone
Pulls me from the deep
Oh it's a heavy load
Walking down this road
You got the worst of me
This time tomorrow
See what tomorrow will bring

Again

6. Bad Talkers

Hey little darling
Don't be down people come around
(Hey don't be down, don't be down, people come around)

Everbody wanna find joy in life

But nobody wants it for you
I'm sick and tired of hiding my smile
The world is cruel whatever you do
Hey little darling Don't get down people come around
It won't get to me
It won't set you free
Keep on wasting all your time

You're talking to me
But I don't hear a word you say
I hope you find yourself
Cause you will have to face
The harsh cold reality
Oh, bad talker
You're just a bad talker

People keep on feeding all their evil thoughts
Spinning the wheel of hate
All the sounds I hear come out of your mouth
Make me lose my faith in the human race

Hey little darling
Don't get down people come around
It won't get to me
It won't set you free
Keep on wasting all your time

What if the world was equal
And no one was judging you

But I don't hear a word you say
I hope you find yourself
Cause you will have to face

You're just a bad talker

7. You Gotta Try

You spend a dollar
Spend it on something true
He's taller, you're much smaller
Would he care if he was you
And would he bother
Oh, would he bother if you
Had nobody to turn to
There's no honour in the things we do
For that dollar, that dollar or two
There's no honour in the things we do
For that dollar, that dollar or two

Power seeker

Power seeker
(Won't be there for you)

(Won't be there for you)

Pretty graceful, you
But there's no truth in that
There's no cover for one another
Too late to turn around
This mess is inside out

No one gets by there's no easy way
Time slipping by past repeats itself
No one asks why but I think we had enough
Old folks gonna pass it down
Young folks gonna past it around

And find a reason to believe in
You gotta try to be alive
And find a reason to believe in
Got to be my reason

8. Won't Go Back

I’ve been falling
He’s my darling
Feeling less than nothing
I was getting what I deserved

Just like my mother
I lived undercover
If I could have seen it coming
I’d have left a long time ago

I been down too long
On the bottom of my empty soul
And I’ll never get back
All the years that you stole

You see me bleeding I’ve had enough
I’m already leaving
You won’t touch me no more
I packed my things I slam the door
Now I’m the one in control
I won’t go back
(Never ever, oooh)
No I won’t go back to you
(Never ever, oooh)
I won’t go back
(Never ever, oooh)
I will never go never ever go back to you
(Never ever, oooh)

You see me grinning
It’s because I’m winning
Leaving the mistakes
I made too many times before

I ain’t giving you nothing
I just hope that your suffering
You get what you’ve done
There’s no place that you can run

You see me bleeding I’ve had enough
I’m already leaving
You won’t touch me no more
I packed my things I slam the door
Now I’m the one in control
I won’t go back
(Never ever, oooh)
No I won’t go back to you
(Never ever, oooh)
I won’t go back
(Never ever, oooh)
I will never go never ever go back to you
(Never ever, oooh)

There’s no truth in you
No use for to try
All the abuse you do
This is my goodbye

Time time I won’t ever go back
Never go back, never go back

Never go back, never go back
No no no

I’m already leaving you lost my trust
Cause this time I won’t ever go
Never go back, never go back
No no no

9. Rejection

You stood on a darkened
Edge of a dead end street
Stuck inside of a whirlwind
The same way you wished for me

Slave to your needs
Your claws are on my back
I don’t know if I’m gonna last

From this pain
In my heart from your rejection
I got pain
In my heart like an injection

All out of glory
I’ll never be the same
Behind my smile there’s a twisted mind
If fills my heart with pain

I’m just looking for something
Something that’s good and true
But it seems like I’m always waiting
You love can be so cruel

All my suspicions steering me away
That kind of poison driving me insane
Your love’s the curse, got me feeling low
All I’ve ever known

Pain and rejection
In my heart like an injection
Pain and rejection
All I need is your affection

So I’m running
(I’m running)
I keep on running from your loving’
(I’m running)
I’m running from what I am becoming
(I’m running)
From what you are
(I’m running)

(Running, running, running…)

You stood on a darkened
Edge of a dead end street
Stuck inside of a whirlwind
The same way you wished for me
Locked to your needs

Pain and rejection
In my heart like an injection
Pain and rejection
All I need is your affection

All my suspicions steering me away
That kind of poison driving me insane
Your love’s the curse, got me feeling low
All I’ve ever known
Got me feeling low
I gotta let you go
All I’ve ever know

10. Elements And Things

Reach up to the sky
Reach up to the sky
I would but the sun's in my eyes
Can you see the lightnin'

Oh but why are you so frightened why?

Can you hear the thunder?
Can you hear the thunder?
Oh you lay back down and wonder yeah
Step out on the moon
Step out on the moon
There ain't nothin' but gloom
On the dark side

It's dark and forboding
It's dark and forboding
Oh my mind is overloading yeah yeah
Can you hear the thunder?
Can you hear the thunder?
Oh you lay back down and wonder
About things
