You can't speak, you can't sleep
You daren't move, you're
confused
You never talk, you can't walk
You can't feel, you're not real
If I
open my eyes, just far enough
I can see what you're doing
Go on tight to the end, it's
tough enough
When you're on the road to ruin. Yeah
You're a hostage of the
heart
Twisted round the smallest finger
Two burning eyes are tearing you
apart
Turn your soul into a cinder
There's no rest, you're
possessed
You can't leave, you can't breathe
The door slams, your head hangs
You
blank stare, you don't care
If you open your eyes just far enough
You can see the
street lamps flicker
Go on fight to the end it's tough enough
When you know the end is
bitter
Repeat Chorus
You're numbers up, you're eyes shut
You're
on the brink, you can't think
You wanna run, but you're stunned
You can't lie, you don't
try
If I open my eyes look hard enough
I see the blue light flashing.
Go on
fight to the end, it's tough enough
Riding on the road to ashes |
