You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide No one can say what we get to be I know you want me So don't keep saying our hands are tied You claim it's not in the cards Fate is pulling you miles away And out of reach from me

Hate and war The only things we got today An' if I close my eyes They will not go away You have to deal with it It is the currency Hate, hate, hate, the hate of a nation A million miles from home And get war from the junkies

Turn me into someone like you Find a place that we can go to Run away and take me with you Wait just a while Don't let go I need your rescue Save me from my superstitions Now I'm free from this soul's condition And I'll greet you with a smile Hold me

How was I to know that this was always only just a little game to you? All the time I felt you gave your heart I thought that I would do the same for you, Tell the truth I think I should have seen it coming from a mile away, When the words you say are,
