My my can you feel the strain today,
Hold tight cos it’s about to break,
Forgive me if I refuse,
To dig a little deeper cos I’ll only lose,

And I’m sick and tired of hearing you complain about it,
Shoot down all advice and help from all around,
Here’s one thought to think about,
My patience for this patient has all worn out.

Ready, take aim, as we put out the flame,

Hey you, are you running on empty?
Cos I know what you need,
You just have to help yourself,
But you can’t see,
No you can’t see,

Hear these words from the heart today
I’m well aware that they’ll tear us apart,
Watch us while we wash our hands
Of these dark days as we take a stand,

How’d ya think it feels to see this friend of mine
Screaming please can’t somebody test me one more time?
One more thought to think about,
We adapted to the darkness when the light went out,

Ready, take aim, clear the mind of all distractions,
Ready, take aim, as we put out the flame,

Hey you, are you running on empty?
Cos I know what you need,
You just have to help yourself,
But you can’t see,
No you can’t see,

How can everyone be wrong?
While you keep singing that same old song,
You walk in circles as we just walk on by,
How can everyone be wrong?
While you keep singing that same old song,
You walk in circles as we just walk on by,

Hey you, are you running on empty?
Cos I know what you need,
You just have to help yourself,
But you can’t see,
No you can’t see,
