Placebo

Cast your mind back to the days,
When I pretend' I was OK
I had so very much to say,
About my crazy livin'
Now that I've stared into the void,
So many people, I've annoyed
I have to find a middle way,
A better way of livin'

So I haven't given up,
That all my choices, my good luck
Appear to go and get me stuck,
In an open prison
Now I am tryin' to break free,
In a state of empathy
Find the true and enemy,
Eradicate this prison

No-one can take it away from me,
And no-one can tear it apart
'Cause a heart that hurts,
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts,
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts,
Is a heart that works

No-one can take it away from me,
No-one can tear it apart
Maybe an elaborate fantasy,
But it's the perfect place to start

'Cause a heart that hurts,
Is a heart that works
A heart that hurts,
Is a heart that... works
