When I'm alone and filled with promise
Sometimes I feel nothing at all
I don't believe that silence is golden
I don't want to stray
Sometimes daylight drives me crazy

When you believe in the one and all
Some black masks roll out their feelings
I don't want to stray
If it's something I might have said

Life is a tug of war
Slap in the face
Life is a tug of war
All over the place
Life is a tug of war
Let's cut to the chase
Every night I dream

Soon you'll think love really happens
Now you got me up against a wall
Something went wrong
And I feel like crawlin back into your arms again
Show your faith I'm your friend

Life is a tug of war
A slap in the face
Life is a tug of war
A total disgrace
Life is a tug of war
Let's cut to the chase
Life is a tug of war
Sorrow and pain
Life is a tug of war
I can't explain
Life is a tug of war
All over the place
Life is a tug of war
A total disgrace
Every night I dream
So give it all you got
And give it your best shot
If something's wrong then make it right

solo

Life is a tug of war
A slap in the face
Life is a tug of war
A total disgrace
Life is a tug of war
Let's cut to the chase
Life is a tug of war
Sorrow and pain
Life is a tug of war
I can't explain
Life is a tug of war
All over the place
Life is a tug of war
A total disgrace
Life is a tug of war
Sorrow and pain (fade out)
