Burn like morning light against my face
This bruise like cheap perfume will start to fade.
And I could fool myself
To think that the sound of my hurt
Was the sound of my heartbeat

Hard times and hot nights are keeping me wide awake
And big shock, she loves me not.

Say you'll be mine
Think I'm out of time
Out of breath
Cheap wine and cigarettes
Take me back to where I shouldn't be.
Where I shouldn't be

Hard times and hot nights are keeping me wide awake
And big shock, she loves me not
She's here to stay.
And I'll point disaster my way
