Lyrics
How long must I play along?
I don't know why you torture me
say such things you don't believe
I don't know why you play with me
say such things you don't mean
Over the years I know what's right
now I'm back from the dead to take what's mine
Over the years I know what's mine
Now I'm back from the dead to make it right
Until I fall over
Until I go under
Until I fall over dead
How long must I play along?
