I guess you had to be there, You didn't have to go there
Even though I had to get there anyway
You taught me one hard lesson
'bout the stuff I'm never messin' in
'Cause the cost is never worth the price ya pay
You knew the day I met you, I was never gonna let you
do those things I knew would hurt you in the end
Bound and determined to divest you of your burden
I found the strength to turn and chase the wind
We never understand just what it is we're askin' for
We never take the time to question anything, anymore
The devil's in the details if you wanna know for sure
Life is deadly enough, if you don't get killed by the cure
Don't get killed by cure, don't get killed by the cure
Killed by the cure.
So it's not the first time and at least there will be one more time to see my life flash before my eyes,
Each time a little diff'rent, people and places like pigment
on the canvas of your life and times- goodbye
The next time that I see it- you can best believe that there's a millisecond or two, that will be owned by you
but the grim reaper laughs when my name is called-
He's heard it all before, and I'm sure that he has better things to do.. listen..
Better things to do than take me away from you
Than to take me away from you, any time soon
We never understand (just what it is we're askin' for)
We never take the time (to question anything, anymore)
The devil's in the details (if you wanna know for sure)
Life is deadly enough, if you don't get killed by the cure.
Don't get killed by the cure, Don't get killed by the cure
Killed by the cure.
