It’s the point of no return, do you think you’ll ever learn?
Play with fire and you’ll get burned
What ya gonna do?
What ya gonna do when you find that the next in line is you?
Baby, it’s you

There’s a storm coming
A hard rain is gonna fall
I feel it in my fingers
I see the writing on the wall
Got nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
I just wasn’t made for these times

There’s an earthquake rumbling
I feel it under my feet
I swear my eyes have seen the blood
Flowing down the street
Got nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
I just wasn’t made for these times

I’m telling you baby
Let there be no doubt
That if you never see my again
Then you’ll know I’ve found my way out

Tell me when it’s over
Tell me when the storm has passed
The blood is up to my knees now baby
And the tide is rising fast
Got nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
I just wasn’t made for these times

Baby, when you shake your hips I really dig it
I bet those lollipop lips they know just how to lick it
I need a little loving, baby
So come on and give me some yeah

You know that I need you honey
You can tell by the look in my eyes
I’d give you all of my money
If I had any baby – would you make me feel right?

When you move that ass my eyes are moving with it
I’d like to take it for a ride but I can’t afford the ticket
I need a little loving, baby
So come on and give me some

I should have known right from the start
A girl like you could only break my heart
I should have known when you were untrue
But there was nothing I could do
When we were through
That’s when I knew
There’s no other girl like you

Well, you know I’ve tried so many times
To erase it from my mind
I should have known you would make me blue
But now there’s nothing I can do

My heart’s been broken for so long
But there ain’t no sunshine when you’re gone
My soul’s been owned and done wrong
But there ain’t no sunshine when you’re gone

I should have known it was all a game
Your kind of love drives a man insane
I should have known you would make me blue
But now there’s nothing I can do

Too many people don’t know how to set free
They’re spending all their lives buying all kinds of shit they don’t need
If you know what I mean
But the lights are changing
Now is the time
There is not a doubt in my mind
Knowing that you’re mine…

Every time I turn on my TV
There’s a man talking about the world of the free
But I don’t think he means you and me

You and me, we see things so differently
Baby, you and me, we see things so differently
If you know what I mean

Do you know what’s happening?
It’s like a supernova in your mind
Well, the change is in you
It’s like a flashing lantern in your eyes
Don’t you worry, it’s alright
Don’t be sorry, you’ll do fine
You’re growing younger all the time

Well, it ain’t no secret
It’s like a guiding lighthouse in the dark
Everybody knows it
It’s like a twisted flower in your heart

Your heart is beating, it’s alright
Keep on breathing, it’s alright…

People try to push me and put me down
I can’t ever find out what it’s all about
They call me a loser, a freak and a clown
Had it up to here, man - but it’s all over now

It used to feel right with you hanging around
But I heard the way you’re talking about me all over town
If you can’t get with it, get off of my cloud
Two’s a crowd, babe – it’s all over now

You ain’t gonna tell me how to live no more
It’s all over now, it’s all over now
You ain’t got the hold on me you had before
It’s all over now, it’s all over now yeah

Sometimes I wish there was an easy way out
I’d be gone by tomorrow without a doubt
If you can’t live with me, you can do without
Take a look around, babe – it’s all over now

Don’t try to tell me what’s not right
That kind of thing is just a state of mind
Don’t talk to me about natural highs
I’m a one track mind kind of guy
Chemical buzz

Don’t try to tell me what’s not real
I’ve seen it all and it’s no big deal
This kind of kick doesn’t lose its appeal
So let me tell you how it makes me feel
Chemical buzz

Don’t try to tell me what’s not true
I ain’t gonna do what you want me to do
This world is full of people just like you
You play the game but you were born to lose
Chemical buzz

There’s something about the way you move
In your denim dress and your leather boots
You’re like a habit I just can’t kick
I’m flipping candy till it makes me sick
Christine – you’re the sweetest girl I’ve ever seen

There’s something about the way you smile
With your electric cool and your cocaine eyes
You’re like a habit I just can’t kick
I’m flipping candy till it makes me sick
Christine – you’re the sweetest girl I’ve ever seen

So you say you wanna live like there’s no tomorrow
So you say you’re getting rid of all the pain and sorrow
But if you don’t free your mind
You might as well be doing time
It’s your life, do what you want and you’re gonna do right

So you say you got soul, but you just can’t fake it
That a heart is a heart and that I just can’t break it

You can talk all you want for a million reasons
Blame your mom and your dad and the changing seasons

Prophets talk about the end of the world
They say it’s gonna be soon
But every end that’s gonna get you down babe
Is gonna get me down too
We were born to lose

When I was a kid I thought the world looked so strange
From my point of view
I never thought there was anybody like me
But now I know it ain’t true
We were born to lose
And some of us were born to play the blues

I met a girl that I could love all my life
She makes me feel so good
I try to tell her all the things that make her smile
To make her feel good too
But we were born to lose
We’re all gonna die now

So now you’re asking who stole your freedom
When the truth is you gave it away
You’ve been selling yourself short
And now you’re dragging your ball and chain
You’re building your own cage
Laying roses on your own grave

You can tell your girlfriend to snuff it
And then convince yourself how you’ve changed
Well, it’s just another nail in your coffin
If you think it’s all just a game

You can make your way to the window
See what tomorrow holds in store
But it’s just like chasing your shadow
If you think it’s not your own fault

Don’t you know, there’s no place I can go
It’s like I’m stuck on a merry-go-round
Can’t you see what it’s doing to me?
It’s like the whole thing is getting me down
Around and around it goes
How to make it stop, nobody knows

Grains of sand, cigarette in my hand
Time is running, but I’ve run out of time
No way out, better deal with the doubtful revolution
Blowing my mind

Rising sun, my TV is turned on
Looks like I’m in for another spin
Turned out right, better turn out the lights
But all this turning is doing me in

Through the woods of nowhere fast
Shattered dreams and broken glass
The seeker said your die is cast today

Out of the circle that clouds your mind
Through the shadows and into light
Hear those sweeping voices cry your name

Love comes down
And let’s you know the truth
Love comes down on you

Into the mindfields of your own past
Your lotus wheel it spins so fast
The seeker said your love will last in vain
