Trace of Doubt

I never thought I'd live to tell this tale today
Not in my wildest dreams could I predict it anyway
Just a social misfit with nothing much to do
At least I've had my interests
Cos now my life is through
And everything is getting darker now
I hope I can escape it some how
Some how

I can't see the lights outside
I can't seem to run and hide
Prisoner of something,
But I can't quite make it out
It casts a shadow on my thoughts
And leaves no trace of doubt

I feel the urge to break
To make a brand new start
But then I loose my mind, it's tearing me apart
Well here it comes again
I can feel it taking hold
Well here it comes again
Now the devil's got my soul

And everything is getting darker now
I hope I can escape it somehow
Some how

But I can't see the lights outside
But I can't seem to run and hide
Prisoner of something, but I can't quite make it out
It casts a shadow on my thoughts
And leaves no trace of doubt

(hey, hey, hey)

I never thought I'd live to tell this tale today
Not in my wildest dreams could I predict it anyway
Just a social misfit with nothing much to do
At least I've had my interests
Cos now my life is through
And everything is getting darker now
I hope I can escape it some how
Some how

But I can't see the lights outside
But I can't seem to run and hide
Prisoner of something, but I can't quite make it out
It casts a shadow on my thoughts
And leaves no trace of doubt

I can't see the lights outside
But I can't seem to run and hide
Prisoner of something, but I can't quite make it out
It casts a shadow on my thoughts
And leaves no trace of doubt

You may think that I don't know
About your sleazy tabletop show
You may think I won't agree
About your secret fantasy
Don't you think I wonder where you are?

But I don't
The way you know me
The way you show me
It really turns me on
The way you know me
The way you show me
It really turns me on

I've seen your picture on the wall
I don't really mind at all
You may think I'd be ashamed
But for me it's just a horny game
Don't you think I wonder where you are?

But I don't
The way you know me
The way you show me
It really turns me on
The way you know me
The way you show me
It really turns me on

Coming nearer can you feel me?
Coming closer can you feel me?

But I don't
The way you know me
The way you show me
It really turns me on
The way you know me
The way you show me
It really turns me on

Well now I've seen it all before
Nothing comes new to me anymore
Is this for real? I can't decide
Something is messing with my mind

Well I guess that now my time is near
Displacement conjures up no fear
The end will only linger on
Responsibility has gone

The end of existance is heading my way
I don't think I can last one more day
Stuck in a place that doesn't wound or mend
Is this what's called The Living End?

I'm stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea
The end is here for eternity
The end will only linger on
Responsibility has gone

The end of existance is heading my way
I don't think I can last one more day
Stuck in a place that doesn't wound or mend
Is this what's called The Living End?

Stuck in a place that doesn't wound or mend
Is this what's called The Living End?

Stuck in a place that doesn't wound or mend
Is this what's called The Living End?

Stuck in a place that doesn't wound or mend
Is this what's called The Living End?

I never thought that I was strange
I always had something to do to think about
They say that some things never change
Well I guess they do
Cos I never thought I was strange

So I maybe off the wall
Just a little bit
I may seem to be unfriendly
But that's not it

Well I never thought that I was strange
(I never thought that I was strange)
I always had something to do to think about
They say that some things never change
Well I guess they do
Cos I never thought I was strange

Strange looks from everybody around
Well I don't care cos I'm not fooling around
I don't know what makes me different and I don't care
Maybe it's not my problem, but why do they stare?

So I maybe off the wall
Just a little bit
I may seem to be unfriendly
But that's not it

Well I never thought that I was strange
(I never thought that I was strange)
I always had something to do to think about
They say that some things never change
Well I guess they do
Cos I never thought I was strange

Sometimes I stop. Think for a while.

I don't know what makes me different
And I don't care
Maybe it's not my problem
Why do they stare?

So I maybe off the wall
Just a little bit
I may seem to be unfriendly
But that's not it

Well I never thought that I was strange
(I never thought that I was strange)
I always had something to do to think about
They say that some things never change
Well I guess they do
Cos I never thought I was strange

Well I guess they do
Cos I never thought I was strange

I read all the papers
What did I see?
Page to page corruption
Thank god it's not me

Headlines, deadlines, photographs
It's all bullocks to me
A family's future on the line
As long as they get a story

They won't tell you anything
They're not even wondering
What went on in town today
Headlines mean they get their pay

Red light district, Saturday night
Cops are late for another fight
One man's mess, another's glory
Another crime, just another story

They won't tell you anything
They're not even wondering
What went on in town today
Headlines mean they get their pay

I read all the papers
What did I see?
Page to page corruption
Thank god it's not me

Headlines, deadlines, photographs
It's all bullocks to me
A family's future on the line
As long as they get a story

They won't tell you anything
They're not even wondering
What went on in town today
Headlines mean they get their pay

They won't tell you anything
They're not even wondering
What went on in town today
Headlines mean they get their pay

See, the streets at night
Far, away from school
But, they'll never know
I'll carry on, something is wrong

Runaway, from somebody you'll never know
You'll live on hostility
Breakaway, from the mayhem and misspent youth
And think about the bitter pill you swallow

Lost, in paradise
Not in the environment for you
But, they'll never know
I'll carry on, something is wrong

Runaway, from somebody you'll never know
You'll live on hostility
Breakaway, from the mayhem and misspent youth
And think about the bitter pill you swallow

See, the streets at night
Far, away from school
But, they'll never know
I'll carry on, something is wrong

Runaway, from somebody you'll never know
You'll live on hostility
Breakaway, from the mayhem and misspent youth
And think about the bitter pill you swallow

We may be small but that's alright
Sleep all day come out at night
Been kicked around but that's ok
One of these days we'll have our say
Singing out couldn’t care less
The neighborhood yells out give it a rest (hey)

So lonely
I'm feeling blue
Yeah if only
I can find a lonely kid too

(Alright)

Whoa So lonely
I'm feeling blue
Yeah if only
I can find a lonely kid too

We may be small but that's alright
Sleep all day come out at night
Been kicked around but that's ok
One of these days we'll have our say
Singing out couldn't care less
The neighborhood yells out give it a rest (hey)

So lonely
I'm feeling blue
Yeah if only
I can find a lonely kid too

Well we may be small but that's alright
Sleep all day come out at night
Been kicked around but that's ok
One of these days we'll have our say
Singing out couldn't care less
The neighborhood yells out give it a rest

(hey, hey, hey)
