Living inside a bottle
 Strung out on a line
 Caught in life's rough and tumble
 Blind leading the blind
 I wish there was an answer
 But she's got such an easy way
 And you know you can't leave her
 And you know you can stay
 
 
[1]
 Oh it's killing me
 Oh, love's a mystery
 Oh, it's killing me
 Oh, love's a mystery
 
 We're hiding from the small talk
 And hiding all the pain
 With our backs against the wall
 Is all this love in vain
 
 
[1 Repeat]
 
 When I'm with you you know I try so hard
 Not to love you but I keep up my guard
 Every single day that goes by
 Are we fooling ourselves living a lie
 
 
[INSTRUMENTAL]
 
 Please tell me now it's no secret
 Is there surrender with defeat
 Do you let love pass you by
 Walk to a different beat
 
 
[1 Repeat]
