Take me down Give me the score Tell me I’m gone Tell me I’m done You’ve counted me out Before the last bell has rung Tell me I’m Tell me I’m
Here, brick by brick Let’s rebuild this lovely scene You say blood is thicker, boy But it’s not what these eyes see The truth is bitter real Yes, it’s a spinning wheel Round and around and around we go You know I never really could get into our conversations Just merely confrontations It’s a lovefest, an inspiration
You try to play preacher And teach me the ways of the world The path you have taken The dark road was built on the lies that were told
Take me down Give me the score Tell me I’m gone Tell me I’m done You’ve counted me out Before the last bell has rung Take me down Deeper and deeper Right through the heart Tell me I’m done All roads are blocked And there’s nowhere to run Tell me I’m Tell me I’m gone I’m gone I’m gone I’m gone
You know I’ve been wandering And dragging this heavy soul Lord knows These lessons you’re selling Soul medicine Isn’t easy just follow I’ll try to meet ya on that high plateau So take the message to the chief Tell him I ain’t coming This heart’s too proud, it can’t be broken It’s a black tie affair And guess who’s coming to dinner, to dinner, to dinner…
You make the words sound so sweet Let’s pretend that everything’s gonna be alright, alright It took me a second to read ya Just wasn’t my game, fool Face me when I speak to ya
Take me down Give me the score Tell me I’m gone Tell me I’m done You’ve counted me out Before the last bell has rung Take me down Deeper and deeper Right through the heart Tell me I’m done All roads are blocked And there’s nowhere to run
