When it all comes down like suicide,
you keeps your eyes wide shut wide and your hands in sight,
seems impossible to choose,
either way you're gonna lose.
And your life comes down like heavy rain
and you try your best to stay sane,
there is nothing left to lose,
nothing left to choose.
As your silver-line's wearing thin with time and rust is eating what is left to shine,
seems impossible to cope, so hang on to your last rope.
Keep your heart up close and your soul on hold
and wait for the cue that was meant for you.
'Cause our intention is not what you might think.
When you try to hide what's deep inside and all your friends have stepped aside,
you try to hide what eats you from inside.
Sing it for me now. Sing it out aloud.
And though you never gonna get away alive, I guess it's all that you can do..
to keep what's left of your pride.
As your heart stopped beating and it broke in two, you can rest a**ured, we did all we could
for the last poor boy in town, who had the heart to stick around.
We brought the paramedics and the oxygen, it took a lot to bring you back,
for your final escapade, your last serenade.
Sing it for me now, sing it for me now.
And though you never gonna get away alive, I guess it's all that you can do...
to keep what's left of your pride.
Shine a little light on them, shine a little light on them, my dear.
