an ending that's pretty 

a beautiful city 

to open the vein and take a hit 

i don't care if i break down 

tonight if i get out 

i don't care i'll take what i can get 

but if i get out it pulls me back again 

it comes on like a dream but now it's closing in 

i know what you want from me 

i know what you want from me 

i know what you want from me 

when i'm standing at the end 

so quiet and happy 

so tired and laughing 

you know i don't see you every day 

and i've got wrinkles and black lines 

a colorful new life 

it really don't mean much anyway 

but if i get out it pulls me back again 

exploding in a dream but now it's closing in 

i know what you want from me 

i know what you want from me 

i know what you want from me 

when i'm standing at the end 

so give me the white light 

give me the quiet life 

to bury my face and take it in 

if i get out it pulls me back again 

exploding in a dream but now it's closing 

i know what you want from me 

i know what you want from me 

i know what you want from me 

when i'm standing
