You do this to yourself, you know You keep yourself awake You're crying yourself to sleep again Every night this week You walk until you're sober Then you stumble into bed Words have lost all meaning She echoes in your head Don't you know you can't go on this way? Do you learn when it happens every day? Countdown Set the clock again Countdown to self destruction The television’s off But you’re tuned into the show Yell at her to stop But she’s the only one who knows Don’t you know you’re running out of steam? Do you learn when it happens on repeat? Countdown Set the clock again Countdown to self destruction Your face is red and your face is numb And she looks at you and asks what on earth you’ve done You light the fuse, you check your watch And you throw away the only thing you’ve got Every night right at twelve o’clock Countdown Set the clock again Countdown to self destruction Your face is red and your face is numb And she looks at you and asks what on earth you’ve done You light the fuse, you check your watch And you throw away the only thing you’ve got Every night right at twelve o’clock
