Gone, after she's gone in my way
I'll keep on going strong
Have to be strong
In my way just keep on going
I'll keep one wide open
Keep one locked away
And when the whole thing's over
No one left to blame

People are throwing their lives away
Saving their dreams for another day
Caught in a slow erosion in intimate decay
Until my will is broken no one left to blame

Don't let the world,
Don't let the world
Fall on your head
Don't let the world
Fall on your head

And when the flood gates open
Ashes swept away
Until my will is broken
I'll be first to say

Gone, after she's gone in my way
I'll keep on going strong
Have to be strong
In my way just keep on

Don't let the world,
Don't let the world
Fall on your head
Don't let the world
Fall on your head

Follow me down
Follow me down
Follow me down
Follow me down
