This weight is so unbearable caving my lungs All my life seems to be flashing in front of my eyes Run away from all the pain of life Ways of devotion turn to obsession open your eyes I want you to see what you′ve done to me crying out those eyes Bring my end to an end Distance yourself from the pain that covers me I reach out for your hand to find there′s nothing left for me Razors kiss the vein overdose for pain A 12 gauge cross kisses the forehead a saviour in a shell Sever me from the fall Fuck the people, Fuck the world, Fuck it all Open my arms Bleed out the flood In crimson I begin to drown
And you said you′d never leave me In fact you said you′d be my only one I said you′d never grieve me baby For things do when you are only having fun, fun. You said you′d cry a river I thought you meant you′d cry a river of tears You′d rather die than live without me baby But little girl you′re so insincere You know you count your blessings But now I find that you were counting sheep, counting sheep And then I try to court your feelings I caught your eye and then you caught my cheek All the trees [prisoners?] must come to view [feed?] now And there you stood so proud the apple of my eye You said you′d never leave me baby But little girl that′s the reason why Whoa, that′s why I have to leave you all alone Whoa, that′s why you have to leave me all alone Let′s go collect our prize now So entertaining we were no-one no-one [number one, number one?] The judge is hypnotized now But after all we both fooled [bought the fool] for so damn long So face the crowd and take a bow now, bow now ′Cos one more time and it will all be done ′Cos I must have been a show to you now baby My next performance has just begun Whoa, that′s why I have to leave you all alone Whoa, that′s why you have to leave me all alone Whoa, that′s why I have to leave you all alone Whoa, that′s why you have to leave me all alone Oh, Stop and think for a minute baby As they bring the curtain down Another drink then another, maybe The toast might not make rounds [To do so nothing rhymes?] I chose the style, the duck and the weaving [wheel?] We were famous for And here′s to him, and here′s to yours and You can thank me for the floor [... take the floor the floor] Whoa, that′s why I have to leave you all alone Whoa, that′s why you have to leave me all alone I don′t know, so you turned around and found another fool I don′t know, so you turned around and found another I don′t know, so you turned around and found another fool I don′t know, so you turned around and found another
Close your eyes The rain won′t wash away Close your eyes The rain won′t wash away
The silence isn′t complete The rush and defeat But I′ll stay, if you promise Always, someday will be our day
Close your eyes The rain won′t wash away Close your eyes The rain won′t wash away
This time we have to believe So beautifully we′ll sing "Stay if you promise, someday will be our day" Someday will be our day I said now, someday will be our day
He′s pining for her In a people carrier There might be buildings and pretty things to see like that But architecture won′t do Although it might say a lot about the city or town I don′t care what they′ve got keep on turning them down It don′t say the funny things she does Don′t even try and cheer him up, because It just won′t happen

It feels like she′s just nowhere near You could well be out on your ear This thought comes closely followed by the fear And the thought of it Makes you feel a bit ill
Yesterday I saw a girl Who looked like someone you might knock about with And almost shouted And then reality kicked in within us It seems as we become the winners You lose a bit of summat And half wonder if you won it at all
And don′t say ′owt ′cause you′ve got no idea And she′s still nowhere near And the thought comes closely followed by the fear And the thought of it Makes you feel a bit ill
Despair in the departure lounge It′s one and they′ll still be around at three No signal and low battery What′s happened to me
