The Suffering Songtext
von Billy Talent

Like a target drawn across my chest
She′s a bullet in Russian Roulette
You said you'd never turn your back on me (rescue me, rescue me)
Would you stand by me and bury me? (Bury me)

Why don′t we end this lie?
I can't pretend this time
I need a friend to find
My broken mind before it falls to pieces

(This suffering) every time
You tried to leave me (this suffering) blind
You'll never close (this suffering) my eyes
You′ll never close my eyes and watch me die

And when she spins the bottle ′round and 'round
Every time it leaves me gagged and bound
You said you′d never turn your back on me (rescue me, rescue me)
Would you stand by me and bury me? (Bury me)


Why don't we end this lie?
I can′t pretend this time
I need a friend to find
My broken mind before it falls to pieces

(This suffering) end this lie
I can't pretend (this suffering) this time
I need a friend (this suffering) to find
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This suffering) every time
You tried to leave me (this suffering) blind
You′ll never close (this suffering) my eyes
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die

Misery won't get the best of me
′Cause now I′m calling, yes I'm calling on your bluff, yeah!
Misery won′t get the best of me
'Cause now I′m calling, yes I'm calling on your bluff
Throw down the cards I′ve had enough

Why don't we end this lie?
I can't pretend this time
I need a friend to find
My broken mind before it falls to pieces


(This suffering) every time
You tried to leave me (this suffering) blind
You′ll never close (this suffering) my eyes
You′ll never close my eyes and watch me die

(This suffering) end this lie
I can't pretend (this suffering) this time
I need a friend (this suffering) to find
My broken mind, before it falls to pieces

(This suffering) every time
You tried to leave me (this suffering) blind
You′ll never close (this suffering) my eyes
You'll never close my eyes and watch me die
