If you want me to be strung out On the feelings that surround me now No, I won't be restrained What you had in mind for me When you're running on overload The the truth will begin to show Finding the answer is a long hard road That no one will know You've been leading a sheltered life Now you're facing a free-fall ride You better move before You're down on your knees, so hard to concede If you want me to be strung out... Some say it's never too late To play into the hands of fate Trading the hopes of your ethereal haze Get out of this place As we stand here and watch the storm Waiting years for the night to fall
Avoiding every chance To feed the fire, you know I'm a liar If you want me to be strung out On the pain and the feelings of doubt No, I won't be afraid Of leading you down Down the road to the fallout You think you've won it going away Now you're melting in the acid rain Trapped in a cage where are your friends now? Nowhere to be found As we stand here and watch the storm Waiting years for the night to fall Avoiding every chance To feed the fire, you know I'm a liar If you want me to be strung out... If you want me to be strung out On the pain and the feelings of doubt, no I won't - no I won't!
