Text
Seems I've got have a change of scene, 'cause every night I have the strangest dreams. Imprisoned by the way it could have been, left here on my own or so it seems. I've got to leave before I start to scream, but someone's locked the door and took the key.	a
You feelin' alright? I'm not feelin' too good my self. (2x)	b
Well, boy you sure took me for one big ride, and even now I sit and wonder why. But when I think of you I start to cry; I just can't waste my time, I must keep dry. Gotta stop believin' in all your lies, 'cause there's too much to do before I die.	c
Don't get too lost in all I say, though at the time I really felt that way. But that was then; now it's today; I can't get off and so I'm here to stay. Till someone comes along and takes my place, with a different name and, yes, a different face.	d
