Millstone

I used to be such a burning example I used to be so original I used to care, I was being cared for Made sure I showed it to those that I love I used to sleep without a single stir 'Cause I was about my Father's work Well, take me out tonight (Oh) The ship of fools I'm on will sink A millstone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give I used to pray like God was listening I used to make my parents proud I was the glue that kept my friends together Now they don't talk and we don't go out I used to know the name of every person I kissed. Now I made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it Well, take me out tonight (Oh) The ship of fools I'm on will sink A millstone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give Well, throw me that lifeline The ship of fools I'm on will sink A millstone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give "They never hit the brakes There was no time to see He just ran out in the street Does anybody know his name? I think I recognize him..." (Sure it's him?) "He sure as hell paid for that mistake..." Whoa, whoa, whoa (Whoa) So take me out tonight The ship of fools I'm on will sink A millstone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give Well, save my life tonight The ship of fools I'm on will sink I'm my own stone around my neck Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give
