  • I'm down a one way street
    With a one night stand
    With a one track mind
    Out in no man's land
    The punishment sometimes
    Don't seem to fit the crime

    Yeah there's a hole in my soul
    But one thing I've learned
    For every love letter written
    There's another one burned
    So you tell me how it's gonna be this time

    Is it over?
    Is it over?
    'Cause I'm blowin' out the flame

    Take a walk outside your mind
    Tell me how it feels to be The one who turns
    The knife inside of me

    Take a look and you will find
    There's nothing there, girl
    Yeah I swear, I'm telling you, girl yeah "Cause

    There's a hole in my soul
    That's been killing me forever
    It's a place where a garden never grows
    There's a hole in my soul
    Yeah, I should have known better
    'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose
    Yeah, yeah

    I'm as dry as a seven year drought
    I got dust for tears Yeah I'm all tapped out
    Sometimes I feel broken can't get fixed

    I know there's been all kinds of shoes
    Underneath your bed
    Now I sleep with my boots on
    But you're still in my head
    And something tells me this time
    I'm down to my last licks

    'Cause if it's over
    Then it's over
    And it's driving me insane

    Take a walk outside your mind
    Tell me how it feels to be
    The one who turns the knife inside of me
    Take a look and you will find
    There's nothing there, girl, yeah, I swear
    I'm telling you girl yeah "Cause

    There's a hole in my soul
    That's been killing me forever
    It's a place where a garden never grows
    There's a hole in my soul
    Yeah, I should have known better
    'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose
    Yeah, yeah

    Yeah, is it over?
    Yeah, it's over
    And I'm blowing out the flame

    Take a walk outside your mind
    Tell me how it feels to be
    The one who turns the knife inside of me
    Take a look and you will find
    There's nothing there, girl, yeah, I swear
    I'm telling you girl yeah "Cause

    There's a hole in my soul
    That's been killing me forever
    It's a place where a garden never grows
    There's a hole in my soul
    Yeah, I should have known better
    'Cause your love's like a thorn without a rose
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
