VERSE 1
                  
I’ve been up, I’ve been down,
                               
I should’ve shown you all around,
                      
I wanna know what you know,
                                   
Cos then we’ll find that you don’t know,
          
Nothing, yeah-ah,
                        
You’ll never be nothing, yeah-ah-ah,

VERSE 2
                  
You forced in, you want out,
                           
Now you see what it’s all about,
                       
Giving up is just like you,
                           
Can’t we just see this one through?
          
One time, yeah-ah,
                        
You’ll never be nothing, yeah-ah,


CHORUS
	       
Tough luck, ya fallen in the dark,
      		     
Which way should I go now, I thought you’d show me how-ow-ow,
	       
Jump down, you think ya something now,
	  			           (Hold)
You’re no better than the rest of u-us,


VERSE 3
       
Love in, Run out,
                     
Never give without a doubt,
                       
Let things turn in your mind,
                               
What can you see before you’re blind?
        
Only, yeah-ah,
                          
It’s only what they want you to see


CHORUS
	       
Tough luck, ya fallen in the dark,
      		     
Which way should I go now, I thought you’d show me how-ow-ow,
	       
Jump down, you think ya something now,
	  			           
You’re no better than the rest of u-us,
	       
Tough luck, ya fallen in the dark,
      		     
Which way should I go now, I thought you’d show me how-ow-ow,
	       
Jump down, you think ya something now,
	  			           (Hold)
You’re no better than the rest of u-us,


MIDDLE 8th
                      
Cos when you’re dead and gone, 
                        
You leave things behind and life goes on.
                     
Will you fade away, or burn out another way

Yeah yeah

Yeah yeah
      
Yeah yeah
