Exiled and pushed away, Lost in time, Always I'll be This bitter person, Who's stuck right here, Disillusioned Don't stand by, If you don't like what you see, So unsatisfied, No I won't take what you say to me Give me some time, Give me some reason Make up your mind and cool down the fever, (The) drama must die, So give me some way to salvage this life, Finally it's over You ought to stay away, 'Til you see, What runs through me, Unless you get this game, The only one I wanna play My promise is cold, You never been told, There's nothing to hide, I never did lie There's no way to win, When love is in vain, I won't take what you say to me Give me some time, Give me some reason Make up your mind and cool down the fever, (The) drama must die, So give me some way to salvage this life, Finally it's over Dead End, Countdown Dead End, Countdown Dead End, Countdown Dead End, Countdown I know we're stuck inside a Dead End, Countdown, With no communications, Straight down, We're drowning in our desperation, We're lost beneath the surface Give me some time, Give me some reason Make up your mind and cool down the fever, (The) drama must die, So give me some way to salvage this life, Finally it's over Give me some time, Give me some reason, Now we're stuck inside Give me some time, Give me some reason, I know we're stuck inside Dead End, Countdown Dead End, Countdown Dead End, Countdown Dead End, Countdown
