It doesn't go away when you're trying not to stay
It doesn't go away no matter the days
When trying to forget
Push it down with cigarettes or better yet
Burn it up into a fire but none of it goes
Cause I know what I know and I know what I shouldn't
It's a loathsome truth between us now
Send it up in smoke the embers all aglow
But it doesn't go away this aching old pain
Ooo-oo-ooooooo
No it doesn't when you're trying
No it doesn't go away no matter the days
Cause I know what I know and I know what I shouldn't
It's a loathsome truth between us now
If you're on the level
If you're on the level
Are you
If you're on the level
On the level you can talk to me (talk to me)
If you're on the level I'm gonna level with you anyway
Are you flinty (strong)
To hang my secrets on
If you're on the level
On the level you can talk to me (talk to me)
If you're on the level I'm gonna level with you anyway
Are you flinty (strong)
To hang my secrets on
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
Come back dummy get it get home
Come back dummy never leave me alone
Bring some sweetness sugar your drug
Gimme sickness summa summa your love
Cause it doesn't go away even trying out the strays
No it doesn't go away no matter the days
Send it up in smoke the embers even show oh oh oh
But it doesn't go away this aching old pain
