| I’ll keep the timing of all you said
|
| Set it back in your head
|
| Creep slowly around like the living dead
|
| I may never be the same again
|
| We’re safe but only when the lights are on
|
| Soon enough there’s something wrong
|
| The timing of all you said
|
| How do I get it out of my head
|
| I’m placing bets
|
| I’m writing checks
|
| To keep on living
|
| Keep on living, living
|
| I’m counting heads
|
| Trying hard to forget
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| Missing
|
| Missing
|
| Wet blanket words you’ve given me
|
| Never ever will they set me free
|
| I tucked myself in patiently
|
| Covered my mirrors so I couldn’t see
|
| You wake me up when you’re on time
|
| I’ve been sleeping all my life
|
| My destiny in your bed
|
| How do I get it out of my head
|
| And when the sun goes down I wonder
|
| Where your head hits the pillow
|
| It’s like hearing lightening, seeing thunder
|
| I’m placing bets
|
| I’m writing checks
|
| To keep on living
|
| Keep on living, living, living
|
| I’m counting heads
|
| Trying hard to forget
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| Missing |
| Missing
|
| How do I get it out of my head
|
| There was a time when I thought that I had lost my faith
|
| It took a while but I realized it was misplaced
|
| And it’s a style to pretend like you are far from grace
|
| To run a mile
|
| Just to find you were in the right place
|
| I’m placing bets
|
| I’m writing checks
|
| To keep on living
|
| Keep on living, living, living
|
| I’m counting heads
|
| Trying hard to forget
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| Missing
|
| Missing
|
| I’m placing bets
|
| I’m writing checks
|
| To keep on living
|
| Keep on living, living, living
|
| I’m counting heads
|
| Trying hard to forget
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| The ones that I’m missing
|
| Missing
|
| Missing
|
| I’m placing bets |
