Flea - Taste The Pain lyrics

[Verse 1] Flat on my back In a lonely sprawl I stare at the ceiling Because I cannot fall Asleep tonight No, not at all Head lights flash Across my bedroom wall Crying eyes open Because I cannot fall In love with you No, not at all [Chorus] Walk away and taste the pain Come again some other day Aren't you glad you weren't afraid Funny how the price gets paid [Verse 2] Busted in two Like a brittle stick I cannot drink Because my throat constricts Love-sick from you That will never do Open my mouth I couldn't make a sound I could not scream I could not shout It out to you Nothing to do [Chorus] [Bridge] This may come as a shocking surprise I have to take a walk I have to kiss it goodbye Goodbye, my love[x2] I am not alive [Chorus]
