16 Tons Lyrics by Donots

Better Days Not Included

0

Yeah
You find me

Crouched in the corner of my expectations
I'm in the place where nobody wants to be
16 tons falling down on me, yeah
Situation overload
I think my head's gonna explode
And every day the tension grows and grows
Well, I've got to get out of here
The situation seems crystal-clear
If in want to get away it is all boilling down to me, yeah
To walk away with broken legs
And hold on tight with bleeding hands
But every day the tension grows and grows

Hey
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony

Can't anyone take me home?
The room is crowded i'm all alone
Somehow i wish i could care less
But that's the way it goes
I'm never gonna leave this place
The bomb explodes right in my face
You always gonna hear my say

16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
Yeah!

Hey!
Go! Go! Go!

16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
Yeah!

16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
The perfect irony
The perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
Yeah, it's the perfect irony
16
Tons fall on me
Yeah, 16 tons fall on me, they fall on me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
