Lyrics
EVERY TIME I SMILE YOU SLP ME IN MY FACE. YOUR WORLD COMES ALIVE WHEN YOU SEE ME FALL FROM GRACE. I REACH OUT FOR MY FRIEND THAT HELPS ME KILL THE PAIN. THE LITTLE BOY INSIDE CRIES AND SLOWLY FADES AWAY.
HOW MUCH MORE MUST I TAKE? SO MANY SLEEPLESS NIGHTS, LORD KNOWS HOW MUCH I'VE PRAYED. HOW MUCH MORE MUST I TAKE? HOW MUCH MORE MUST I TAKE....MUST I TAKE?
WHEN I'M STANDING STRONG YOU PUSH ME TO THE GROUND. EVEN WHEN MY SPIRIT'S UP YOU FIGHT TO KEEP IT DOWN. VISIONS OF YOU DANCE IN MY HEAD JUST TWIST MY MIND. THOUGH MY HEART BLEEDS DEEP INSIDE MY SOUL REMAINS ALIVE.
[chorus]
HAVE YOU NOTICED ALL YOUR SCHEMES HAVE BEEN IN VAIN. SO PACK YOUR BAGS AND ALL YOUR THINGS HAVE NO DEVICE REMAIN.
[solo]
[chorus and end]
