I started something I couldn't finish I couldn't leave my house for days Locked in the basement all the lights off Burn the candles both ways Until it grew unlike before A bit too big to ignore I started something I couldn't finish And it wouldn't leave me alone I started something I couldn't finish Such a foolish thing to do Such simplicity or duplicity When you don't know who is who? There was peace for a while No police that's not my style I started something I couldn't finish And it wouldn't leave me alone It doesn't matter what your friends say Doesn't matter what your folks say You know when you're through It doesn't matter what your friends say Doesn't matter what they all say You know when you're through I started something I couldn't finish I couldn't leave my house for days Locked in the basement all the lights out And it wouldn't leave me alone
