Lyrics

0:01Sometimes I wish that you were dead
0:08I wasn't right to let you go away
0:15I tried to kill the pain inside
0:18But you were always on my mind
0:23No matter where I go or stay
0:29Into the night still falls the rain
0:32Even the dogs stay home tonight
0:36Out on the streets goin' nowhere
0:39Just one direction in my thoughts
0:42Love can be magic it can be a game
0:46Sometimes it's tragic sometimes a shame
0:49Words were my bullets emotion my gun
0:53I was a runner now I'm on the run
0:56Sometimes I wish that you were dead
0:59That is because you haunt me so
1:03I wasn't right to let you go away
1:10I tried to kill the pain inside
1:13But you are always on my mind
1:17No matter where I go or stay
1:30Sometimes I dream my time away
1:34And we're together again
1:37But I know that can never be
1:41And all my hopes are in vain
1:44You were my treasure but I didn't know
1:47You were the sun in my life
1:51Thought I was dying when I realized
1:54There's just one chance to survive
1:58Sometimes I wish that you were dead
2:01That is because you haunt me so
2:05I wasn't right to let you go away
2:11I tried to kill the pain inside
2:15But you are always on my mind
2:18No matter where I go or stay
2:24Sometimes I wish that you were dead
2:36Sometimes I wish that you were dead
2:41Sometimes I wish that you were dead
2:48Sometimes I wish
2:49Sometimes I wish that you were dead
2:53Sometimes I wish that you were dead
2:56That is because you haunt me so
2:59I wasn't right to let you go away
3:06I tried to kill the pain inside
3:10But you are always on my mind
3:13No matter where I go or stay
3:18Sometimes I wish that you were dead
3:25Sometimes I wish that you were dead
3:30Sometimes I wish that you were dead
3:36Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
I wasn't right to let you go away
I tried to kill the pain inside
But you were always on my mind
No matter where I go or stay
Into the night still falls the rain
Even the dogs stay home tonight
Out on the streets  goin' nowhere
Just one direction in my thoughts
Love can be magic  it can be a game
Sometimes it's tragic  sometimes a shame
Words were my bullets  emotion my gun
I was a runner  now I'm on the run
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
That is because you haunt me so
I wasn't right to let you go away
I tried to kill the pain inside
But you are always on my mind
No matter where I go or stay
Sometimes I dream my time away
And we're together again
But I know that can never be
And all my hopes are in vain
You were my treasure but I didn't know
You were the sun in my life
Thought I was dying when I realized
There's just one chance to survive
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
That is because you haunt me so
I wasn't right to let you go away
I tried to kill the pain inside
But you are always on my mind
No matter where I go or stay
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
That is because you haunt me so
I wasn't right to let you go away
I tried to kill the pain inside
But you are always on my mind
No matter where I go or stay
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
Sometimes I wish that you were dead
