Stranded ( On My Own )

Lyrics

Let's rock
 Crazy heart, where have you gone?
 I thought that you and me were really getting along!
 Left alone to dread the dawn
 Like some kind of science experiment gone wrong
 I could've made history, now I've been made history
 And who knew that victory could be so slippery?
 Cover the thick bloodstains
 On your sick young brain
 Just take your Ritalins
 Then you can play the old hits again
 You explained the Abyss away
 And I can't listen when you say you're not missing me
 You kissed me in the blistering heat, oh yeah, yeah!
 Right there on the street with tears on my glistening cheek
 Now no one listens to me, they tell me that I'm twisted and weak
 I see that I was picked to be the picture in the dictionary
 Look up "Addicted," that's me
 Then look up "Wicked disease"
 Then look up "Sick of police"
 Then look up "Victim" closely, ooh yeah
 I meet the mystery beast, the same one my sister receives
 He comes to bludgeon and beat, demands me on both knees
 He will not admit defeat and when he pricks, I'm going to bleed
 And I can raise fists or flee, soon shouting, "No, mister, please!"
 He destroys the diseases
 As though Jesus could see us
 High up in a cathedral
 Where an evil heart freezes
 I believe even the devil would start to believe it
 When the man without equal, from the pulpit, preaches
 You gotta believe he can tell you the secrets
 "That's what a priest is, Mama"
 He comes to obliterate all of my mischievous ways
 And leaves me a useless disgrace, silent through limitless rage
 Violently neutered and caged, stuffed with subliminal hate
 I'm nothing but a puppet at play, crying in a beautiful place
 Another brutal display
 On an invisible face
 In a legal-ish space
 It's the usual way within a week of Wednesday
 Crazy heart, where have you gone?
 I thought that you and me...
 I thought that you and me...
 I thought that you and me were really getting along!
