When The Pain Bites 04:48
lyrics

Lost in a city of familiar strangers Mind on alert scanning for danger Icy rain freezing soaking your face Need to escape Get out this place Coloured lights flashing sales talk and warnings Car horns and sirens through darkness til dawn Drunken bystanders drift down the sidewalk Soon will be morning Time to move on Take another pill try to sleep my love They will be watching from deep in the shadows Close your eyes think only of me Sharp knives and arrows Are all you will see When the pain bites For one more time Inflicting a wound Carving a line Self harming angel Asleep in my bed I’ll work through the night to fix your head When the. Pain bites No drugs no booze no illicit substance Try to come down from all of your highs Gonna be hard to walk that fine line Get rid of the doubt And open your eyes Take another pill try to sleep my love They will be watching from deep in the shadows Close your eyes think only of me Sharp knives and arrows Are all you will feel When the pain bites For one last time Inflicting a wound Carving a line Self harming angel Asleep in my bed I’ll work through the night to fix your head When the pain bites
