at first I was afraid i was petrified
i kept thinking
i could never live without you by my side
but then i spent so many nights
just thinking how you'd done me wrong
i grew strong i learned how to get along
and so you're back from outer space
i just walked in to find you here
without that look upon your face
i should have changed my fucking lock
i would have made you leave your key
if i'd have known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me

oh now go walk out the door
just turn around now
you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one
who tried to break me with desire?
did you think i'd crumble?
did you think i'd lay down and die?

oh not i i will survive
as long as i know how to love
i know i'll be alive
i've got all my life to live
i've got all my love to give
i will survive i will survive

it took all the strength i had
just not to fall apart
i'm trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and i spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
i used to cry but now i hold my head up high

and you see me with somebody new
i'm not that stupid little person
still in love with you
and so you thought you'd just drop by
and you expect me to be free
but now i'm saving all my lovin'
for someone who's lovin' me

oh now go walk out the door
just turn around now
you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one
who tried to break me with desire?
did you think i'd crumble?
did you think i'd lay down and die?

oh not i i will survive
yeah as long as i know how to love
i know i'll be alive
i've got all my life to live
i've got all my love to give
i will survive i will survive

Politicians hide themselves away.
They only started the war.
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor, yeah.

Time will tell on their power minds,
making war just for fun.
Treating people just like pawns in chess,
wait till their judgement day comes, yeah.

Now in darkness world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more War Pigs have the power,
Hand of God has struck the hour.
Day of judgement, God is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling.
Begging mercies for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings.
Oh lord, yeah!

i had a match, but she had a lighter
i had a flame, but she had a fire
i was bright, but she was much brighter
i was high, but she was the sky
oh baby, i was bound for mexico
oh baby, i was bound to let you go

i don't know much about cinco de mayo
i'm never sure what it's all about
i say i want you, and you don't believe me
you say you want me, but i've got my doubts

oh baby, i was bound for mexico
oh baby, i was bound to let you go

i had a match, but she had a lighter
i had a flame, but she had a fire
i was bright, but she was much brighter
i was high, but she was the sky
oh baby, i was bound for mexico
oh baby, i was bound to let you go

i need your arms around me, i need to feel your touch
i need your understanding, i need your love so much
you tell me that you love me so, you tell me that you care
but when i need you baby, you're never there

on the phone long, long distance
always through such strong resistance
first you say you're too busy
i wonder if you even miss me

never there
you're never there
you're never, ever, ever, ever there

a golden bird that flies away, a candle's fickle flame
to think i held you yesterday, your love was just a game
a golden bird that flies away, a candle's fickle flame
to think i held you yesterday, your love was just a game

you tell me that you love me so, you tell me that you care
but when i need you baby
take the time to get to know me
if you want me why can't you just show me
we're always on this roller coaster
if you want me why can't you get closer?

never there
you're never there
you're never ever ever ever there
