In the back room
Through the cold steel door
Sits a man with nothing left to gain or lose
He can't take any more
Fallen down on his knees
He has a name on his arm for love
Puts his head across the words
Closes his eyes and thinks of her
(I wish you were here)
Don't believe your eyes
It's what you feel inside
That pain is only here for you to realize that you're still alive
Take your silver and gold
You've been bought and sold
This life is not a game
But it's a battle of the weak and the bold
(Fight or die)
Back at a meet
In the pouring rain
Cries a girl who's torn apart from shootin' up
Just to ease the pain
With a last cry to the heavens
She wears a ring on her coldest hand
As she reaches to the stars deep down she knows
But can't understand
(He's not coming back)
Don't believe your eyes
It's what you feel inside
That pain is only here for you to realize that you're still alive
Take your silver and gold
You've been bought and sold
And this life is not a game
But it's a battle for the weak and the bold
Oooh
When there's nothing left to say
It's always dark when you open your eyes
'Cause your breath's been taken away
Time waits for no one to feel
A choice for you to make
This one's for you to take
(Fight for life)
