Lyrics for Hell Without the Flames
It's been a long night It's been a goddamn crime It's been a hard fight Inside my lonely mind And when the shift ends I'm driving half-dead home Cracks in the pavement Cracks in my heart of stone And now I'm coming back again Play this game I'll never win Promised paradise More than waiting 'round to die Friends ask "How you been?" I say "You know how it is Waiting for this world to end" It's just another day In hell without the flames Rat inside a cage holding back the rage Hell without the flames She left on Monday She didn't slam the door I promised one day But it was always one day more And now I'm coming back again Play this game I'll never win Promised paradise More than waiting 'round to die Friends ask "How you been?" I say "You know how it is Waiting for this world to end" It's just another day In hell without the flames Rat inside a cage holding back the rage Hell without the flames It's just another night Me without my mind Another hill to climb another axe to grind Hell without the flames
