Lyrics

Strung out
When we started out
It was fun, so cool
Nothing really heavy
Just a little after school
We were chasing dreams
And living for the day
Live was for the taking
It was such a simple game
I don't know when
And I don't know why
Suddenly I lost you
And a part of you had died
You've gone and taking it to far
I don't recognize who you are, you're...
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away
I'm running out of words to say
Is there nothing getting through
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out
Believing that there's nothing wrong
With everything the pain goes on
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away
It's a long way down
When you're flying high
No one's gonna catch you
When you’ve told too many lies
It's hard for me
I'm not that brave
Please God help me now
While there's something left to say
My premonitions are coming true
Just tell me babe, what you are trying to prove?
You're hurting me, breaking me
You still forsaking me
Why can't you see? You're...
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away
I'm running out of words to say
Is there nothing getting through
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out
Believing that there's nothing wrong
With everything the pain goes on
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away
Oooooh, yeah
You're strung out, baby
Yes you are
Strung out, yeah
Flowers on the grave
I'm calling your name
Ashes in the rain
Uh, flowers on the grave
I'm calling your name, baby
Ashes in the rain
Yeah, yeah
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away
I'm running out of words to say (Words to say, yeah)
Is there nothing getting through
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out
Believing that there's nothing wrong
With everything the pain goes on (The pain goes on)
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away (Yeah, yeah)
Strung out
You're wasting all our love away (Taking our love away)
I'm running out of words to say (Words to say)
Is there nothing getting, baby (Through)
'Cause I can barely see you
Strung out (Out)
Believing that there's nothing wrong (There's nothing wrong, no baby)
With everything the pain goes on (Oh, the pain goes on)
Tell me what they gonna say
When you shut yourself away
