Necessary Evil

Fight it off, hide the pain

Blame the pills, blame the brain

Go to bed, wake back up

All again, all for what?

Oh-oh, will I be alright?

Oh-oh, will I be alright?

It's a necessary evil

A jagged thorn up in my side

It's the sharp end of the steeple

It's the darkness of the night

And I have tried to run around it

But I stumble on the truth

It's a necessary evil

'Cause it brings me back to you

Let it ache till I come home

And remember, I don't have to face this universe alone

I'll be free, I'll be yours

I'll be spinning on this boulder that gets darker every turn

Oh-oh, I'm gonna see the light

Oh-oh, I'm gonna see the light

It's a necessary evil

A jagged thorn up in my side

It's the sharp end of the steeple

It's the darkness of the night

And I have tried to run around it

But I stumble on the truth

It's a necessary evil

'Cause it brings me back to you

It's a necessary evil

A jagged thorn up in my side

It's a broken heart of people

It's a racin' beat of mind

And I have tried to live without it

But I'll die before I do

It's a necessary evil

'Cause it brings me back to you

Yeah, it's a necessary evil

'Cause it brings me back to you

Yeah, it's a necessary evil

'Cause it brings me back to you
