| I’ve seen the vultures circle overhead
|
| And I thought nothing more of it
|
| I’ve seen the angels line up at your door
|
| I wasn’t scared when they asked for more
|
| Of what I knew deep down
|
| You didn’t have and never did
|
| Can you even remember what your dream is?
|
| You’ve walked a thousand miles
|
| So people you dislike could wear a smile
|
| So are you just a pawn in all their games?
|
| 'Cos you’ve got nothing left to give
|
| You’ve stayed too long again
|
| You’ve burnt your candle at both ends
|
| And I’ll be waiting in this spot
|
| For you and your return
|
| And instead of letting you give up
|
| I’ll see you get what you deserve
|
| Do you hear whispers in your ear at night?
|
| I know the friends that guard your side
|
| Through thick and thin they steer you through the pain
|
| Of a life that hasn’t gone your way
|
| So you try to repay
|
| Those who have stood by you
|
| But the more you relay
|
| The more others want from you
|
| You’ve stayed too long again
|
| You’ve burnt your candle at both ends
|
| And I’ll be waiting in this spot
|
| For you and your return
|
| And instead of letting you give up
|
| I’ll see you get what you deserve
|
| You’ve stayed too long again
|
| You’ve burnt your candle at both ends
|
| And I’ll be waiting in this spot
|
| For you and your return
|
| And instead of letting you give up
|
| I’ll see you get what you deserve |
