We all come in from the cold We come down from the wire
An' everybody warms themselves to a different fire
'N sometimes we get burned You'd think sometime we'd learn
The one you love is the one that should take you higher
You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her
Just like children hiding in a closet Can't tell what's going on outside
Sometimes, we're so far off the beaten track We get taken for a ride
By a parlor trick, or some words of wit A hidden hand up a sleeve
To think the one you love could hurt you, now Is a little hard to believe
But everybody, darlin', sometimes bites the hand that feeds
When I look around An' everybody always brings me down
Well, is it them or me? Well, I just can't see
But there ain't no peace to found But if someone really cared
Well, they'd take the time to spare A moment to try and understand another one's despair
Remember, in this game we call life, that no one said it's fair
* Breakdown Let me hear it, now Breakdown Let me hear it, now
Yeah Breakdown Let me hear it, now
I've come to know the cold I think of it as home When there ain't enough of me to go around
I'd rather be left alone But if I call you out of habit I'm out of love and I gotta have it
Would you give it to me if I fit your needs?
Like when we both knew we had it Now, the damage's done
And we're back out on the run
Funny how everything was roses when we held on to the guns
Just because you're winnin' don't mean you're the lucky one
