The Mission UK - Wasting Away lyrics

Cloaked in black like the stars, so wrapped up in yourself you are The needle taste sweeter by far than the cold light of day And as you become enslaved to the puppy that you grief There is nothing I can do to save you from slipping away And I just wanted, just needed to say I hate to see you wasting away, just wasting away So when you just can't take anymore and the nappy comes too full of pain You reach for the comfort of your white stallion again And I just wanted, just needed to say I hate to see you wasting away, just wasting away Just wasting away I've seen the fire die away, I've seen the sunset in your eyes I've seen the darkness coming down and I just needed to say good bye So you're dancing with the candy man, he's saving the last words for you And as he leads you away by the hand there is nothing I can do There is nothing I can do Goodbye to you, goodbye to you
