You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I'vebeen living on the edge so long
Where the winds of limbo roar
And I'myoung enough to look at
And far too old to see

All the scars are on theinside
I'm not sure if there's anything left of me

Don't let theseshakes go on
It's time we had a break from it
It's time we had someleave
We've been living in the flames
We've been eating up ourbrains
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on

You ask me why I'mweary, why I can't speak to you
You blame me for my silence
Say it's timeI changed and grew
But the war's still going on dear
And there's no endthat I know
And I can't say if we're ever...
I can't say if we're evergonna to be free

Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had a breakfrom it
It's time we had some leave
We've been living in theflames
We've been eating out our brains
Oh, please don't let these shakesgo on

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
My energy'sspent at last
And my armor is destroyed
I have used up all my weapons andI'm helpless and bereaved
Wounds are all I'm made of
Did I hear you saythat this is victory?

Don't let these shakes go on
It's time we had abreak from it
Send me to the rear
Where the tides of madness swell
Andbeen sliding into hell
Oh, please don't let these shakes go on
Don't letthese shakes go on
Don't let these shakes go on
