|
Take me down |
|
Gimme the score |
|
Tell me I'm gone |
|
Tell me I'm done |
|
You've counted me out |
|
Before the last bell has rung |
|
Tell me I'm gone |
|
Here, brick by brick |
|
Let's rebuild this lovely scene |
|
You say blood is thicker, boy |
|
But it's not what these eyes see |
|
The truth is bitter real |
|
Yes, it's a spinning wheel |
|
Round and around and around we go |
|
You know I never really could get into our conversations |
|
Just merely confrontations |
|
It's a lovefest, an inspiration |
|
You try to play preacher |
|
And teach me the ways of the world |
|
The path you have taken |
|
The dark road was built on the lies that were told |
|
Take me down |
|
Gimme the score |
|
Tell me I'm gone |
|
Tell me I'm done |
|
You've counted me out |
|
Before the last bell has rung |
|
Take me down |
|
Deeper and deeper |
|
Right through the heart |
|
Tell me I'm done |
|
All roads are blocked |
|
And there's no where to run |
|
Tell me I'm gone |
|
You know I've been wandering |
|
And dragging this heavy soul |
|
Lord knows |
|
These lessons you're selling |
|
Soul medicine |
|
Isn't try to meet ya |
|
On that high plateau |
|
So take the message to the chief |
|
Tell him I ain't coming |
|
This heart's too proud it can't be broken |
|
It's a black tie affair |
|
And guess who's coming to dinner |
|
You make the words sound so sweet |
|
Let's pretend that everything's gonna be alright, alright |
|
It took me a second to read ya |
|
Just wasn't my game fool |
|
Face me when I speak to ya |
|
Take me down... |
