Figure 8

Drained me dry
Down to the last drop
Pearls before swine
All flowers die
Tapped the last good vein
Don't know how to shut if off

Yeah, once you get me going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to stop
Once you get me going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to

All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure eight

I won't miss the feeling
My flimsy spine, unsuspicious mind
I was only being kind
But you mistook me for weak

And once I get going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to stop
Going
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to

All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure eight

Candlelight, candlelight
Burning 'til broad daylight
Candlelight, candlelight
Burning at both ends tonight
How could I? How could I?
If I'm made of thin ice
How could I? How could I?
You'd be wife if you thought twice

All for your sake
Became the very thing that I hate
I lost my way
Spinning in an endless figure eight
What remains
And now I think I'm losing my shape
Not a trace
No end and no beginning, figure eight
