The Lightning Lyrics

There you go again like it's always been/
Starting things that you can't finish
All of your wasted time just left me behind/
Waking up to find it's all ended

(Ooh) Life has a way/
(Ooh) of getting even/

I can't help you if you don't help yourself/
Stare at the burning sun and see if it blinds you/
I can't save you if you won't save yourself/
Stand in the lightning just to see how it strikes you/

On the highest wire strung between two towers/
You're twenty floors above my heartache/
And I try to break your fall, but it won't help at all/
Hit the ground, it's always me who feels the pain/

(Ooh) Life has a way/
(Ooh) of getting even/

I can't help you if you don't help yourself/
Stare at the burning sun and see if it blinds you/
I can't save you if you don't save yourself/
Stand in the lightning just to see how it strikes you/

I can't help you if you don't help yourself/
Stare at the burning sun and see if it blinds you/
I can't save you if you don't save yourself/
Stand in the lightning just to see how it strikes you/
