Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget Oh oh, oh, oh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide [Verse 2] You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it And the clock waits so patiently on your song You walk past a cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide [Verse 3] Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road But the day breaks instead so you hurry home Don't let the sun blast your shadow Don't let the milk float ride your mind You're so natural - religiously unkind [Bridge] Oh no, love! You're not alone You're watching yourself but you're too unfair You got your head all tangled up But if I could only make you care Oh no, love! You're not alone No matter what or who you've been No matter when or where you've seen All the knives seem to lacerate your brain I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain You're not alone! [Outro] Just turn on with me and you're not alone Let's turn on and be not alone (wonderful) Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful (wonderful) Gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful (wonderful) Oh, gimme your hands
