I thought that fire with fire would burn the problem quicker But all this good advice, his hair just grows back thicker And if I take my own advice the worst just gets here quicker So what's it all supposed to do The fire eats fire and the fire's in you And I have nothing here for you All this water's gone and you, you've done nothing here for me Except I know that I can't breathe And we were talkin all weekend I guess I'm mad because I am And I've tried this all before Just in my head not in control Which is why the music died And we're living out our lives in this hope one day our lives will straighten out And we will leave town And we'll get down to business now will someone tell me who I am It's always been a little hard I wish that you could meet her This woman that you have become, you know that she's a keeper Except you keep her under wraps in case someone should break her It's dirty in this world, it's true I wish I could and she does too And I have nothing here for you All this water's gone and you, you've done nothing here for me Except I know that I can't breathe And we were talkin all weekend I guess I'm mad because I am And I've tried this all before Just in my head not in control Which is why the music died And we're living out our lives in this hope one day our lives will straighten out And we will leave town And we'll get down to business now will someone tell me who I am I believe the good wore out and pain does have it's purpose It seems a little silly now, that you would just desert us I know that everything you do, things happen for a reason But give something good, a sign, I need something to believe in And I have nothing here for you All this water's gone and you, you've done nothing here for me Except I know that I can't breathe And we were talkin all weekend I guess I'm mad because I am And I've tried this all before Just in my head not in control Which is why the music died And we're living out our lives in this hope one day our world will straighten out And we will leave town And we'll get down to business now will someone tell me who I am
